I wasn’t going to include this, but couldn’t resist.  These photos are taken from a visit to Bartram’s Garden last summer.  If you love rivers (or trees or quiet places), then bike yourself down to Bartram’s Garden, lock up at the bike racks, and walk through the botanical gardens, where you can sit down and watch the river.  It’s beautiful.  And it’s the first botanical gardens in the entire United States, y’all.  West Philly represent!
