After a good night's sleep in Manassas, VA at Brother Johney's, I headed out to Philadelphia, PA and some real brotherly luv or so I would find out! I headed out through Maryland and landed briefly in Baltimore where I took in the Harbor on a dreary day from storms that shock DC the past evening! Despite the weather, I drove past the Raven's and Orioles's stadiums and took in Baltimore, MD! If I had, had more time, I would have had some seafood but alas, that time will have to wait for now! The harbor was great, lots of photo taking opportunities and even saw an old ship in the bay and photographed that as well! Come On... You know me by now... RIGHT!?
From Baltimore, I headed North East through Delaware where I stopped (BRIEFLY" at a truck stop to fulfill my INNER (WAYNE'S WORLD) Fantasy and film myself talking about being in Delaware!!! Anyone know what I'm talking about!? Not a whole lot there, or at least where I went so I continued on through to Pennsylvania where I stopped off in Philadelphia where I was lucky enough to meet up with Drexel University in Philly! David Johney had some contacts and they contacted me shortly before I ALMOST headed to Jersey where I thought of seeing Atlantic City and my Dad's house where he grew up many years ago in Leonardo, NJ before heading up to my Aunt's!!!
After making a spur of the moment decision, I headed into down town to meet up with the Brothers of Drexel University who were having some professional events and chapter! I was greeted by RAVI who saved the day and paid for University parking at Drexel so I could feel secure and crash for the evening! After several hours of meetings and chapter, I got the opportunity to meet their current pledge class and was thoroughly entertained and was able to pass on some great advice to them in their journey! The brothers of Drexel were amazing...Professional, Friendly, and open to STRANGERS!!! I then went out to SUSHI at POD with two very AWESOME brothers and then met up with others at a bar in down town where we toasted the town and bonded in the coolest of ways! I Think/HOPE I showed them some serious Professional and Social LUV and they were kind enough to let me crash for the evening! Check out the pics! Great Times! So special that I even bought a DREXEL U Shirt and sported it as an UN-Official brother of their chapter! I am SOOOOOO proud of our brotherhood and it was backed up BIG TIME with this experience! Their President, Maryann and I bonded over the course of the evening and she was kind enough to let me crash on her couch! Thank You So Much For That!!!
The next day I rose with a stir and headed out on a journey to see family in New Jersey! On my way out, I had a PHILLY CHEESE STEAK in PHILLY at 9:00AM for breakfast! Doesn't sound good, but it was AMAZING!!! Definitely capped off my time with Amazing Brothers in Drexel! Thank you again for all your hospitality, professionalism and LUV!!! See Yall In JERSEY!!!
Stay tuned for more...
PS...
1. Drexel University was recently voted as one of the "UGLIEST" Universities in America! I did NOT see this and loved my time and the CAMPUS in Philly!
2. If you GPS the Liberty Bell in Philly, it just MIGHT take you to a STRIP MALL downtown where there is NO Liberty Bell!!!???
3. Philly is a place where everyone should go to experience BROTHERLY LUV, whether its AKPSI or NOT! Good Times!!!
