First snow.

We woke up this morning to our first snow since we moved into our new house…

I took a little video with Instagram of the snow falling outside our bedroom window…

Click on the above photo for the video. Here’s the snow in our backyard…

And I took another video of the snow when I got to work downtown…

Northside Sunday.

We walked down to Second Place to watch the Bengals game. And one the way, we noticed a couple of things. We noticed that there’s a new place scheduled to open up in January on Hamilton Avenue called The Hamilton…

Exciting. And a couple doors down is Fat City Billiards, also coming in January…

And then it was on to Second Place...

We ordered some of Second Place’s Sunday half-priced wings and cornbread…

Really good stuff! It was another great Sunday in Northside. 🙂

Pause for paws.

All the tree decorating really tuckered Oscar out…

🙂

Good morning from Northside.

When we were getting ready this morning, it looked like it was going to be another pretty morning. At least the sun was going to come out…

When I was walking Oscar, it turned out to be a really pretty morning…

Good morning from Northside. I’m really taken with just how pretty the sunrises are from our little street. 🙂

45,000.

This morning our 2008 VW GLI hit 45,000 miles

Good morning from Northside.

Good morning from Northside. 🙂

Another grey Sunday.

Today, we went over to The Westside to celebrate Genifer’s brother’s birthday. Later, we took Oscar for a walk up the hill at the end of our street. It was another pretty grey and rainy Sunday today…

Looks like we’re going to have to rake some leaves sometime soon…

I think Oscar can’t wait until all the leaves are raked into a big pile so he can jump in and roll around. 🙂

Second Place.

This evening we walked down Hamilton Avenue to check out a new sports bar called Second Place. It’s a sports bar filled with second place trophies, and it’s the second place from the owners of The Littlefield

Second Place has a pretty nice draft beer list but what caught our attention were those bourbon and featured slushes…

Second Place has a few special food items provided by The Littlefield…

I believe you can also bring in carry-out from The Littlefield and eat it at Second Place. But back to those bourbon slushes…

The slushes are incredible! They also have special hand-aged bourbon in oak barrels…

We were told this concoction had been aged for forty days. Second Place also has a pool table and darts…

And a really great back patio too…

We hung out, ate a couple baskets of free popcorn and watched the Pat’s win…

We didn’t realize that right next to Second Place’s patio was the iconic Northside mural…

Great place. I could see watching many a sporting event at Second Place in the future. Because those bourbon slushes are pretty dang amazing. 🙂

A lazy, long weekend.

It’s been pretty grey and overcast the last couple of days. And we haven’t done much of anything but relax. Especially on Black Friday. We just couldn’t bring ourselves to venture out into that mess…

We’ve just watched a whole bunch of football yesterday and today…

On Friday night, we watched Western Michigan topped Toledo 55-35. Western completed their first undefeated season and advanced to the MAC Championship game against Ohio. We also watched Cincinnati lose the final game of their very disappointing season.

Saturday morning, we watched the wild Swansea-Crystal Palace match that ended 5-4.

Then we ordered pizza, watched Michigan lose an absolute heartbreaker and watched Penn Station punch their ticket to the Big Ten championship. And watched a bit of the Clemson game before it started to get out of hand. It was really relaxing to lay around and do next to nothing. I couldn’t think of a better way to spend the better part of the long weekend. 🙂
