We went to see the new Bourne Legacy movie at Newport on the Levee tonight. We were
happy we took the car because when we got out of the movie it was pouring again…

Great action-packed movie. Two thumbs up!

Josh and Jeannette welcomed their daughter, Violette to the world early this morning.


She was born at 1:57am. 7 pounds 7 ounces. 19 inches long with a full head of hair.
And absolutely the most precious little person in the world. Welcome to the family!

I’m an uncle! 🙂

We watched the Labor Day weekend fireworks extravaganza over the Ohio River on TV…



Because it was pouring down rain all evening…

And the minute the fireworks were over, it stopped raining. Classic.

It’s been a very rainy Labor Day weekend Sunday.

To dodge the torrential downpour that interrupted our Guinness Oyster Fest festivities,
we stopped into Mynt Martini on Fountain Square. And stumbled on to something pretty
awesome. They were cooking up burgers on their grill for just $5. It’s pretty hard to
mess up a burger on the grill. And we love grill. Genifer and I had to try a couple.

And it was really an incredible burger! As were the chips. And on Thursdays, they have
buy one, get one free burgers! You know where we’re going to be come Thursday.

Mynt also had a dunking booth on their patio for some reason. So when we were done eating,
I let Genifer dunk me a couple times…


We were going to get soaked on the way home anyway. 🙂

After the AVP, we walked to Fountain Square to check out the Guinness Oyster Fest.












It started to look pretty threatening…

And then this puppy noticed that it was starting to sprinkle…

And then the skies opened up and it was pouring. Run for cover!

This afternoon we walked up to Washington Park to watch the actual second day of the
AVP Cincinnati Open. Elm Street between the park and Music Hall was been transformed
into three beach volleyball courts. How cool is this going be?














We spotted three-time gold medalist Kerri Walsh Jennings waiting for her match…


And we saw London Olympians Gibb and Rosenthal play a match…



We walked over across the event lawn to get some Keystone mac & cheese…




We grabbed our B.B. King mac & cheese and headed back to watch Kerri Walsh’s match…










We moved to the other court to watch silver medalists April Ross and Jennifer Kessy…






It was an incredible afternoon with all sorts of great volleyball action!

We got our holiday weekend started off on the right foot with the happy hour at Crave.



Great stuff for super cheap!

We hadn’t seen any groundhogs on our walks lately. But tonight, we saw one again…

🙂

Tonight was the final 4EG Happy Hour of the summer. And to celebrate, 4EG was going
to announce the name of their newest bar on Sixth Street. Let’s go…






There was really great musics tonight. Fuseamania got the happy hour started…


Time for the big announcement…

Drumroll…

And the name of 4EG’s new bar is Igby’s! Now it’s time celebrate with Bad Veins!!!

















On the way home, we walked by Igby’s on Sixth Street. We can’t wait check this place
out when it opens in October. It looks like it’s going to huge. And since it’s a 4EG
bar, you just know it’s going to be a really cool addition to downtown Cincinnati.


It’s been a great summer of Monday happy hours. And now, we have $90 in 4EG gift cards
to keep the Monday happy hours going at Righteous Room…

Thanks 4EG! We hope you do your Monday happy hours again next summer! 🙂
