It was really beautiful outside this afternoon, so we took the dogs on an early walk…





And by the time it was six o’clock, the sun had disappeared and it was overcast and grey…

Not the best start to the weekend. πππ€οΈβοΈπβ€οΈ

We were still a little tired and achy this morning from our vaccinations yesterday…

Good morning from Northside…







And good evening from Northside…



Later this evening, it got really overcast…

And here are a couple of Oscar photos that showed up in my Timehop today…


Back when we had grass in our backyard. πππΎβ€οΈ

Good morning from Northside…


The Cintas Center has become a COVID-19 mass vaccination site…

And this afternoon we had appointments to get our COVID-19 vaccination…




The whole thing took about an hour…

And now we’ve been vaccinated!




Good evening from Northside…



We were feeling a bit achy and tired after our shots. After we walked the dogs, we just went upstairs and watched TV in bed for the rest of the evening. So it was just kind of like any other night.
Here’s a photo of Milan from 10 years ago…

Good morning from Northside…


This morning we hopped in an Uber to get downtown to go to our first Reds baseball is what seems like forever. Before the game, we stopped at the relatively new DORA (Designated Outdoor Refreshment Area) in The Banks…

We stopped at Fishbowl at The Banks to share a little fishbowl…

And then we headed into Great American Ball Park…



It felt so good to be back home…





BARGE!







And this one belongs to the Reds! They whooped the Cards 12-1.


We found our Reds All-Star Legacy brick…




We rode the Streetcar up into OtR. We walked to The Pony to share their incredible Chicken Fingers and then we were going to walk to Mecca for a drink or two but they don’t open until six. So we wandered around OtR for a bit…


And ended up at Holiday Spirits for a drink…





And then we hopped in an Uber and headed for home.

Good evening from Northside…



And it was an incredible day too. The world almost felt normal today. We’ve missed baseball so much. Especially Sunday baseball. ππβΎοΈππ»β€οΈ

Do you remember Hank?

Hank was the little dog rescued by the Milwaukee Brewers when he wandered into their spring training facility before the start of the 2014 MLB season. He became an unofficial mascot of the Brewers. Seven years ago, it was announced that near the end of the season, the Brewers would have a BobbleHank night at Miller Park in Milwaukee. And as a result, we went to up to Milwaukee to get our BobbleHanks and had a really fun weekend.

It’s crazy to think that trip was seven years ago. ππβοΈπΊοΈβΎοΈπΆβ€οΈ

Today is April first and that means, it’s also April Fool’s Day…

But the joke was on us because it was snowing this morning…




Good morning from Northside…



We saw our first snail of the spring…

I moved the snail from the middle of the sidewall on the stairs to the edge of the sidewalk by some mulch over by what might someday be an orchard…

It was still snowing…



Good evening from Northside…


We had an NYPD Pizza party tonight…





Remember when Oscar used to hop up on the sofa in our office studio and look out the window?

We got a late jump on our walk this morning and the school was already starting to lineup on our street for drop-off so we just went around the block. And then we went back around the block this evening…



We put our new dining room rug under our dining room table…



And Genifer made chicken gyros for dinner tonight. They were delicious…

Baseball starts tomorrow…

Six years ago, we saw The Lion King for the first time…



And eight years ago, Michigan made it to the final Four…
