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. 🙂

All the tree decorating really tuckered Oscar out…

We went and picked out our first full-sized Christmas tree this afternoon…
We managed to slide our tree in the trunk of our car instead of tying it to the roof. That was a pretty dumb idea because now there’s a bunch of pine needles in our trunk…
Our tree looked a lot bigger at the store…
It looked like Chrismas exploded on our dining room table…
Once it was all decorated, it was a very pretty little tree…
Next year, we’re going to get a bigger tree. And try to find someone that delivers. 🙂

Tonight was Deskey’s holiday party at The Frock in Covington…
After the party, we stopped at Braxton Brewing Company for a beer. It was a great night celebrating the holidays with some really great people. 🙂

My parents sent me all of my Christmas ornaments from my childhood…
And they even included a new ornament for us…
All we need now is a Christmas tree to put them on. Thanks mom & dad! 🙂

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. 🙂

Tonight, we went to Cyclones hockey game #3 of the season at US Bank Arena…
The Cyclones scored as soon as we got into US Bank Arena. But for some reason the goal never made it to the scoreboard. It must have been disallowed for some reason…
Come to find out it was FC Cincinnati takeover night at tonight’s Cyclones game. There were a fair amount of FC Cincinnati supporters that descended upon US Bank Arena clad in Orange and Blue complete with drums and songs straight out of The Bailey…
Had we known, we’d have worn some our FC Cincinnati scarves…
That’s an impressive first period of work…
At the start of the second period, the ‘Clones trailed Fort Wayne 1-0…
And at the end of the second, it was still 1-0…
Our Cyclones selfie made the big board for the first time this season…
Twister joined forces with the FC Cincinnati contingent…
Fort Wayne added the empty netter at the end of the third period…
And the game would end 2-0 to Fort Wayne Komets…
After the game, the Uber rates were kind of ridiculous for some reason. There’s no way the 1810 people in attendance at tonight’s game couldn’t have a surge like that. So we walked up to Igby’s on Sixth Street, and had a beer while we waited for the surge to return to normal…
We had a delicious Opera Cream Stout from Blank Slate…
Before we could even finish our beer, the Uber rates had gone back to normal. Once we were ready, we got our Uber and headed from home. Win or lose, it was yet another great night of Cincinnati Cyclones hockey! 🙂

Good morning from Northside. 🙂

I got my haircut this afternoon, and it was raining in downtown Cincinnati. Thankfully, I could still walk through what little portion was left of the once great Cincinnati Skywalk. Once I got over to Sixth Street, I made it almost all the way over to Queen City Square on Fourth Street. It doesn’t sound like a big deal but the Skywalk saved me having to walk four and a half blocks outside… in the rain. Also on my way to get my haircut, I passed by a bunch of pretty Christmas trees in the lobbies of the various buildings. In the OmniCare building…
And in Queen City Square…
Walking back to work, I noticed that they had hung all the holiday decorations in P&G Gardens…
I don’t really miss living downtown. But I do miss walking through P&G Gardens and Lytle Park every day. They were a couple of my little happy places downtown. 🙂
