^ I also think that was taken when we passed back through Philly on the way to Allentown. That angle of downtown looks like it is from the New Jersey side.

Love seeing these updates! Wish we could do another trip this year, but having the first "TPR trip Baby" has gotten us tied up this summer.

These updates may motivate to actually finish my TR.

Is it just me or is that an OBSCENE amount of pickles? Did you guys even come close to eating them all? Didn't they know it wasn't an ACE event?

I think what I said came out wrong. I mean it's just a photo representing the fact that we are leaving Philly and the next update is from NYC. :)

^ That's exactly right. You have to remeber that in the updates I do try to "tell a story" and that sometimes I'll have to use photos that don't *always* match up, but help move the story along.

I think the caption and the photo didn't quite make sense. If it had said, "Farewell Philadelphia! Next stop- NYC and Coney Island!" then the photo would have made sense. It's just that the caption led me to believe that the picture of the city was NYC...

Thought "Laser Snake Horse" was real.

I have changed the caption to exactly what you said. Please let me know if there are any other captions you would like changed. Just give me what the caption should be and I'll replace it.

Sorry that one caption caused so much confusion.

After many hours and hours of work I put into those updates and the videos, I *really* didn't think it would be that big of a deal nor would it break the story of the update.

As I can see, I was wrong.

In the future, I do apologize if it takes even LONGER to put up the updates as I see I now have to focus test them with a random selection people first to make sure there are no captions that are confusing or misleading and then I can have the updates go live.

Robb, this is fantastic! Great to see all this again. Thank you for the updates.

Tyler, cool videos!

I can only imagine how great the DVD will be. Looking forward to that and the other pics.

Cheers,
