Goodnight moon.

Every night when we’re out walking Oscar, we always gaze at the moon. And tonight, there was a really big, bright 99.7% full moon…

I’ve been borderline obsessed with watching the moon ever since I downloaded this moon app from the Google Play store. It illustrates the phase of the moon with a picture right on my home screen. Clicking on the app tells me what percentage of the moon is visible, when the next full moon will take place and the best part is, it’s ad-free! It’s a neat little app that helps me always feel well informed about the moon. 😀🌕🌝❤️

Tonight, we just ordered some NYPD Pizza and started watching the second season of Stranger Things on Netflix…

It was the perfect Friday night! 😀🍕📺❤️

Higher Gravity: Meet the Brewery.

It was an overcast and gloomy evening but that didn’t stop us from meeting after work at Higher Gravity for another Meet the Brewery…

Tonight’s brewery was Platform Beer Company from Cleveland…

Higher Gravity had three Platform beers on tap to try. We sampled Platform’s IPA called Paranormal Hoptivity, The Peach Project and Yammy Yammy. They were all really good. The Yammy Yammy was my favorite. They have a taproom in Cleveland as well as Columbus. And they were saying that they would like to open a taproom in Cincinnati. So we’ll have to keep an eye out for that. The fourth beer in our flight was Moozie from Brink Brewing Company just up Hamilton Avenue from us. Also, very good. On the way home, we saw these Halloween Elmo’s in a window…

It was another fun evening of sampling some new beers in Northside. 😀🍺🍻⬆️❤️

Downtown details.

When we lived downtown at Sycamore Place, the space directly below our apartment was always vacant. I was walking by our old building today and noticed that the once vacant space is now a leasing office for Sycamore Place and all of its sister properties in the northeastern corner of the Cincinnati’s Central Business District…

It’s nice to see they finally found a use for the space. 😀❤️

Rhinegeist Charitable Suds.

Genifer picked me up from work this evening and we went up to Rhinegeist in Over-the-Rhine for Charitable Suds…

Every Wednesday for 5-8pm, Rhinegeist donates $1 from every draft beer sold in their taproom to a different charitable organization. And they call it Charitable Suds. This week’s organization was Greater Cincinnati Behavioral Health Services were Genifer works in Human Resources…

So we thought we would do our part and have a beer… you know, for charity…

Every time I’ve been in Rhinegeist, I’m always so impressed by the space…

Genifer’s co-workers are really nice,and it was a really good time. 😀🍺🍻❤️

Trick-or-treat!

Tonight, we handed out candy to about 95-ish trick-or-treaters. It was down a little bit from last year’s Halloween when we had well over 100 little ghosts and ghouls visit our house. Luckily, we bought a bunch of candy to hand out…

And when we were done, we only had a handful of candy leftover. But don’t worry, we had some extra candy stashed away for us to enjoy afterward. We hope everyone had a happy and safe Halloween with got lots of candy! 😀🎃👻🍬❤️

ps. And Oscar didn’t have to wear either one of his Halloween costumes this year.

Cheesy, spicy goodness before handing out Halloween candy! 😀🧀🔥🐔❤️

Our VW Jetta GLI.

Yesterday morning, our VW Jetta GLI wouldn’t start. Luckily, we could use Genifer’s mom car to get to work. And wouldn’t you know it, our Jetta started right up when I got home from work. I made an appointment to get it looked at this morning and we dropped it off on our way to work. It needed a new battery. I also had them replace the front tires, rear brakes and got it a 50,000-mile tune-up. And it was all set to be picked up this afternoon. I got to ride a new bus, Metro’s Rt. 4 to go pick up our Jetta right by Xavier’s Cintas Center. It was a piece of cake…
