There are a bunch of Artworks CincyInk: #InkYourLove murals scattered around Over-the-Rhine inspired by the CincyInk poem, “Seven Hills and A Queen to Name Them” crafted by Chase Public. We stumbled across a few while wandering around OtR today…
Pretty neat stuff. It’s interesting to see how various artists visually interpreted the poem. 🙂

Second Sunday on Main: August.
We walked up Main Street into Over-the-Rhine to check out the August edition of Second Sunday on Main. The theme for this August’s SSoM was “EcoMAINia”.

Dominos for dinner.
During our Saturday of laziness, we decided to order some Dominos for dinner…
We got a medium pie. Half pepperoni and banana peppers, half sausage and ham…
Sweet BBQ specialty chicken…
And of course, we had to get their stuffed cheesy bread…
We really like Dominos. It’s not glamorous or trendy or the hot new thing. We just really like it. It’s always good. They deliver really fast, and it’s really reasonable. We got all this delicious food for right around $25. You can’t beat that. 🙂

Pi Pizzeria minus the pizza.
We stopped into Pi Pizzeria again for lunch. But we didn’t get any pizza this time. We were going to just snack on some appetizers. We started Spicy Pickles and Pi Ravs…
Genifer insists that the Spicy Pickles are a new must order whenever we go to Pi from now on. I agree. They have just the right amount of heat. And are oh so tasty. The Pi Ravs were tasty too. Especially, the Berkshire Sausage filling. But they were really tough and chewy, difficult to cut and chewing them was a pretty labor intensive task. Good thing they tasted so good. We also got an order of Pi’s Oven Blazed Wings…
The rub on them is outstanding. Genifer craves that yogurt-cucumber dressing that comes with them. In my opinion, they are the real star of the show at Pi. And are some of the best wings in all of downtown Cincinnati. Sorry there mister…
Next time we eat at Pi, we’re going for the Spicy Pickles and the Oven Blazed Wings. It’s more than enough food for the both of to share. And we won’t leave feeling overstuffed. 🙂

16-Bit Bar+Arcade.
We made our first visit to the new retro watering hole offering classic arcade games, old-school cocktails and an awesome beer selection, 16-Bit Bar+Arcade on Walnut Street in Over-the-Rhine…
They had a whole bunch of the classics. We played some Dig-Dug…
Some Tapper…
And Spy Hunter…
Mike Tyson’s Punch Out!
And one of my favorites from our Atari 2600, Missle Command…
16-Bit is such an awesome place. And they have so many of the classics. I can’t wait to make another trip back. Maybe one day during the week when it’s just a little less busy. Nonetheless, awesome place that brings back so many fun memories. 🙂

Another lunch at Nation.
We went back to Nation Kitchen for a late lunch this afternoon…
We shared the Whiskey Bacon burger with cheddar, bacon, bbq & apple slaw and a sidecar of loaded tots with cheddar, bacon, green onion & ranch sauce…
And of course, one of Nation’s amazing grilled cheeses…
You can’t beat lunch at Nation. 🙂

Horseshoe’s Hometown Market.
We saw this sign for Horseshoe’s Hometown Market…
Apparently, it’s their second annual farmer’s market. We wondered when was the first? Anyway, entertainment, food, cooking demonstrations. Support local businesses while learning how you can be more green. Maybe, we’ll check it out. 🙂

Reds game 32/40.
Reds game 32/40. Reds versus the Whiny Birds…
Bases loaded with Reds…
Brayan Pena doubled down the third base line…
2-0 Reds! BARGE! 
And bases loaded again for the Reds…
It would have been a great time for Jay Bruuuuuce’s 200th home run as a Red…
And no such luck. 
BARGE!!
The Cards’ Randal Grichuk missed a game-tying home run by mere inches in the sixth…
It was ruled a ground rule double. BARGE!!!
It was all tied at three going into the ninth…
Chappie struck out the side. Onto the bottom of the ninth, Votto time…
No late inning heroics from Joey Votto or any of the other Reds this time around… 
After the tenth, we were getting dangerously close to free pizza…
And there we go…
We left in the middle 11th. Grichuk left no doubt with a blast in the 13th-inning, one that lifted the Cardinals to a 4-3 win over the Reds. The 370-foot home run gave St. Louis its first lead of the night and their 14th final-at-bat win of the season. Friggin’ Whiny Birds.

Yikes.
Guys across Eighth Street were putting up scaffolding. And it was kinda freaking me out…
Ugh. I would not want that job. I’m not good with heights. At all.

An evening treat.
This evening we ventured back out to Wilder, Kentucky to get a sweet treat from DQ…
But the real treat was driving back to Cincinnati. The al the shades of blue in the sky contrasting with the oranges and reds of the setting sun and streetlights reflecting off the pavement made it very picturesque…
