Book Signing @ Kesher Isreal

I attended a book signing and talk by Harry Boonin at Kesher Isreal today.  He gave an interesting talk about the history of the temple and an insight into the history of the Jews in Philly.  An interesting bit was his mention of a part of the building's history where the Christian community collaborated with the Jewish community during a move and had mutual respect for each others religious paraphernalia.  I have to wonder how the different communities could understand each other without wikipedia!

Glock Day!

What better first post for my renovated, Philly style blog, then to mention "Glock Day".

A local range in the city (Philadelphia Archery and Gun Club) hosted some helpful representatives from Glock
and offered free test firing of their models.

The staff was helpful and it was fun.  It reminded me of testing racing skis at Killington.  Except less of the fresh mountain air and more of the smell of gunpowder.
