Our HelloFresh meal this evening was Kickin’ Sheet Pan Orange BBQ Porkloaves with cheesy potato wedges and roasted broccoli…
We watched FC Cincinnati play to yet another scoreless draw. And that was pretty much our Wednesday. 😀🌄🍽️❤️

Happy 7-1!
Today is July 1st! Happy 7-1 to all that celebrate…
It was another rainy morning…
On our walk this morning, we only made it to the stop sign at end of street…
But when we went on our walk this evening, the sun was out…
Weather. Go figure.
Good evening from Northside…
We haven’t seen very many snails on our walks so far this year…
Our third and final HelloFresh dinner of the week was Pecan & Walnut Crusted Chicken with BBQ-spiced sweet potatoes, brussel sprouts and apple…
Have we said that we really like the HelloFresh meals?
When we got upstairs, it started pouring again…
And now we have a long four-day holiday weekend…
😀🌄🐾🍽️❤️

Hello from Northside.
Good morning from Northside…
Good evening from Northside…
We had another HelloFresh meal for dinner. This one was Over-Ready Enchilada Chicken with southwestern rice & beans plus red pepper crema…
These meals are just amazing. I really look forward to them every night.
We watched Minnesota United beat Austin and FC Cincinnati beat Chicago…
It’s remarkable that both teams won considering had not good FC Cincinnati is still.
And there was an almost full moon tonight…
We made it through another Wednesday. 😀🌄🍽️📺⚽️❤️

An afternoon in OtR.
It was a beautiful Saturday morning…
There were a bunch of berries on our side yard sidewalk…
I think our sidewalk is going to be purple for a while…
Good morning from Northside…
We drove down into Over-the-Rhine early this afternoon. The June edition of The City Flea was taking place at Washington Park. We found a parking spot on Central parkway across the street from the new home of FC Cincinnnati, TQL Stadium in the historic West End of Cincinnati…
And there’s already a new bar just across the street from the stadium…
But more on that later. It really is a beautiful stadium…
We walked down to Washington Park to check out The City Flea…
And then we walked back to check out The Pitch Cincy…
Pretty neat place. I bet it is just wall-to-wall people on FC match days.
We drove back up into Northside to have a bourbon slushie at Second Place…
Good evening from Northside…
And then we just hung out on our back patio for the rest of the evening…
We had a pretty good Saturday. 😀🌄⚽️🛍️🍻💡❤️

It’s starting to look better.
Today got off to kind of an overcast start…
Good morning from Northside…
We ran back over to Lowe’s this morning…
And we stopped at Mad Llama for coffee and bagels…
And then we did some work in our yard. We finally finished staining our fence…
We planted these marigolds…
We hung our wind chimes…
We got a couple of plants for our hanging baskets…
We forgot to get more pea gravel for our side yard. But we got another planter…
Two more little planters…
And planted plants in them…
But we ran out of potting soil before we could get to our Yucca…
We planted more marigolds…
We moved our little ground coverings from the side yard to the front yard…
Hopefully, they do better over here…
And we got this little mini rose bush…
Next, we’ll have to work on our grass and try to figure out what to do with the path in the backyard and there has been talk of a couple of rock rivers. But it’s starting to look a little better in our backyard.
Good evening from Northside…
We sat on our patio and watched FC Cincinnati lose the home opener in their beautiful new stadium…
We ate frozen oven pizzas…
And called it a Sunday…
We had another really good day. 😀🌄🏡🌻⚽️❤️

A big sports Saturday.
Dang! It was another beautiful morning…
Good morning from Northside…
And we walked down the path by the school to look at the sunrise again…
We drove over to Oakley to go to the grocery. But first, we stopped to fuel up Genifer’s Audi. The sun was just coming up over the buildings…
And then it was on to the grocery…
Kroger was completely sold out of both the panda bear and the train…
So somebody does actually buy them. I wonder if they are any good? Someday, I’ll manage to sneak them into our cart.
Kroger did have a very nice assortment of great balloons today…
With it being so close to Halloween, I almost got this Monster POP!
And then we got our Saturday morning Mad Llama coffee…
Good evening from Northside…
Genifer made a slow-cooker pot roast for dinner tonight…
I made mine into an open-faced roast beef sammich…
And it was awesome! I’d been craving a sammich like this for a whlie now.
Mack kept bringing me his football. He must really be ready to kickoff another season of Michigan football as well…
Later this evening, all my teams kicked off at exactly the same time…
On the TV, I had with my Louisville City hosting Tampa Bay Rowdies the USL Eastern Conference finals. On the iPad, I had my Minnesota United versus our FC Cincinnati. And on the iPod, I had the opener of the Michigan football season as they played away to Minnesota.
LouCity lost 2-1. MNUFC stole one from FC|C 1-0 on a late scramble in the 90+2′, and Michigan whooped Minnesota 49-24. I guess two out of three isn’t bad. Louisville had a wonderful season that included a run of 13 games unbeaten, with eight straight wins that ended with tonight’s loss. 😀🌄❤️
UPDATE: USL made the determination that the season will conclude after Tampa Bay Rowdies and Phoenix Rising FC each progressed through the playoffs to win the Eastern Conference and Western Conference titles, respectively. USL announced that the 2020 USL Championship Final will not be played after multiple persons within the clubs tested positive for COVID-19. The final was scheduled for Sunday, November 1. Tampa Bay and Phoenix will explore the possibility of a 2021 Season Kickoff game between the two clubs prior to the start of the 2021 Championship season.
Wow. A season without a champion. 2020 just keeps getting better.

Our new dehumidifier.
Good morning from Northside…
This afternoon we worked on reorganizing our basement…
Now we just need more shelves. And we finally got to turn on our new super industrial strength dehumidifier…
If we turned the dehumidifier in too soon, it could have pulled the moisture out the setting concrete and it wouldn’t have cured correctly…
And that would probably have been bad…
But omigosh, I was so excited to finally get to turn this thing on. And it drains straight into our new sump pump. It’s all so excited. We’re hoping the dehumidifier pulls all the moisture out of the air in our basement and eliminates that old musty basement smell. But we finally get to see how it works.
Later, we ventured out to West Chester, and we picked up Sonic for lunch…
We took our Sonic over and had lunch with Geri. Sonic was surprisingly good. We had cheeseburger meals. And Sonic also has corn dogs. I got a couple of corn dogs for a snack later. Gosh, I love corn dogs. And corn dongs can be surprisingly hard to find. The corn dogs from Sonic were really good.
Back in Northside, it’s starting to look a bit like autumn…
It was so gloomy, grey and overcast all day today…
And good evening from Northside…
This evening we planned to watch my Minnesota United play Dallas but the match was postponed due to positive tests for COVID-19. So we watched FC Cincinnati lose 1-0 to Toronto instead. FC|C is really tough to watch play anymore. It seems all they do is defend, eleven guys behind the ball and then park the bus. It makes for really boring soccer. And I’m really surprised they could pull over seven minutes of highlights out of this match.
But other than that, it was a pretty good Sunday. 😀🌄☁️💧🍔🍟🍃⚽️❤️

Hello from Northside.
Good morning from Northside…
Since they’re finally done working on our street, we moved our stones and bricks back to their original place in our front yard…
I think we’re going to come out of the water main replacement on our street with only losing a couple of flowers. And that’s really not too bad.
And after our fun afternoon, good evening from Northside…
My Minnesota United was playing FC Cincinnati tonight at Minnesota. Apparently even with the pandemic, a ban on spectators at the matches AND the match being played all the way in Minnesota, FC Cincinnati matches are still blacked out on ESPN+…
Come to find out that thankfully, you can actually stream the FC|C matches through YouTubeTV now…
Minnesota United knocked off FC Cincy 2-0. And Louisville City neat Swope Park Rangers 2-1. It was a great way to end a really fun day. 😀🌄📺⚽️❤️

Covington Yard & Holiday Spirits.
This afternoon we headed out to cross the river over into Kentucky…
On our way, we drove by the new soccer stadium in the West End…
It looks pretty nice. Too bad the team that will be playing in the there is so terrible. We also drove by our old apartment building…
And then it was over the river into Kentucky…
And then we were at Covington Yard…
Genifer had a sangria slushie…
There are three shipping containers restaurants at Covington Yard: Mr. Bulgogi Korean BBQ, Django Western Taco and Yardbird…
We can get delicious Django tacos whenever we want and Mr. Bulgogi wasn’t open so we shared their delicious chicken sammich and fries from Yardbird…
That chicken sammich was really delicious.
Genifer had a bourbon slush and I had a Mango Cart…
Covington Yard is so fun. On our way back home, we stopped in Over-the-Spirits at Holiday Spirits…
We talked about all the trips we’d like to take when the pandemic is over.
And we watched a Black Lives Matter march go by on Liberty Street…
There was the new stadium again…
And we’ve come full circle. We had a really fun afternoon. 😀🐔🍟🍻❤️

Taco Tuesday!
It was a very pretty Tuesday morning…
Good morning from Northside…
Today was a silly busy workday. We had Taco Tuesday tacos for dinner tonight…
I promise there were actually hard shell tacos under that massive pile of delicious shredded taco cheese. And then we took the dogs on their evening walk…
There were pretty clouds this evening…
If you look really close in the center just above the lower group of clouds, there was a plane flying on a really low trajectory that planes don’t usually fly on…
And here’s another one with the plane just to the left of the branch extending into the middle of the frame…
It’s weird how when you live someplace for a bit, you notice odd things like planes flying at weird altitudes and in strange directions.
Good evening from Northside…
It was a pretty low-key Tuesday. But the tacos were delicious! 😀🌮❤️
Later in the evening, my Minnesota United knocked Columbus Crew out of the MLS is Back tournament with what was probably the most clinical penalty shoot-out I’ve ever seen. MNUFC didn’t miss a single spot-kick. It was a thing of beauty. And then FC Cincinnati took Portland Timbers to a penalty shootout as well. But FC|C was not nearly as clinical as the Loons, and were knocked out the tournament with their heads held high after their tenacious performance. This tournament has been so much fun.
