The Dennison Hotel.

They’ve started putting up scaffolding along the facade of The Dennison Hotel after a Hamilton County judge rejected a bid to delay the demolition of the 125-year-old building at Main and Seventh Streets…

I’ve walked passed the Dennison every day for the last seven years. And I can see the top of the building from my office window at work. After living and working just around the corner from the historic building for so long, it’s absence would create a huge hole in the downtown landscape. It’s really unfortunate the owners decided to move forward with demolition instead of renovating and preserving a piece of Cincinnati’s history. I’m going to miss The Dennison Hotel. 😦

Cyclones hockey game #7.

Tonight, we went to our seventh Cyclones hockey game of the season…

LET’S PLAY HOCKEY!

At the end of the first, the Cyclones were trailing the Quad City Mallards 1-0…

HOCKEY NACHOS!

At the end of the second, the ‘Clones still trailed but now it 3-1…

The Cyclones pulled their goalie to try to tie up the game…

But that’s the way it would end, 3-2 to the Mallards…

🙂

A morning surprise.

A box of Holtman’s donuts found its way into our office this morning…

And I was like, #eatallthedonuts. They’re so delicious. Taken with Instagram. 🙂

Cyclones hockey game #6.

Cyclones hockey game #6 of the season! Let’s gooooo…

The Rapid City Rush took the lead just 1:09 into the game…

At the end of the first period, it the Rush were leading the Cyclones 1-0…

The Cyclones pulled one back…

But then the Rush grabbed the empty netter in the closing seconds…

And that’s how the game would end, 3-1 to the Rush…

We love our Cyclones hockey. 🙂

Woods Hardware.

When I was assembling some of our new items from Ikea, I broke off a screw in a nut…

I walked over to Acme Lock and Hardware on Main Street to get a new screw and nut…

Only to find out that Acme hardware had closed and moved over to Ninth Street…

Just around the corner…

According to DowntownCincinnati.com, the family-owned, full-service hardware store has expanded to 8,000 square feet and now offer tools, paint, home goods and they even have a garden center…

And they have all sorts of pet supplies!

Whoa! They have everything! Where was this place when we were living downtown?

They had the replacement parts I needed, no problem. Woods Hardware is going to be an amazing resource to have just the corner from work. It’s such a welcome and wonderful addition to downtown’s Central Business District. 🙂

Fusian sushi.

After work, I stopped to get us some carry-out sushi from Fusian on Sixth Street…

Then I hopped on the Metro 17 bus with our big bag of sushi and headed for home…

We shared a California roll, spicy tuna, spicy salmon and a pb&j roll…

Fusian’s sushi is such outstanding, delicious stuff! We’re going to have to do this much more often! 🙂

Thunderstorms.

It really started pouring late this afternoon. I was tinkering with Polaroid CUBE and took a little timelapse movie of it raining from my window at work…
