May 22 double celebration

In the Philadelphia subway system the sign says May 22. That's a big day for both Joel and Sarah--his birthday and her graduation day from Temple University where she was awarded a master's degree in social work.

Here we are waiting for for the 15th street train at 6:20 p.m. From there it was the 30th street station where ten of us ate at Cosi's.

With us all day were the Schrocks, Ryan's parents and sister Carmen and Grandma Lichty.
