The Betsy Ross House

Philadelphia, PA

1900

I have toured Betsy Ross' house in Philadelphia, small inside, she is buried right on the grounds. When I was there in 2006, it only cost $3.00 to tour. It is just a short distance from Christ church burial ground where 5 signers of the Declaration of Independence are buried, including Benjamin Franklin. It is a private cemetery and cost $2.00 donation to tour, at least back then.

There are going to be a couple of "drone" shows in the area I live in. I'm guessing they are a lot more pet friendly.

What did one flag say to the other on the Fourth of July?

Nothing, it just waved.
