Oscar is back home after our long weekend to Michigan!
He’s so handsome. It’s great to have Oscar back home. Bear is going to stay with Geri for a little bit but he’ll come back home with us in a couple of weeks. 😀🐾❤️

Another day of pretty skies.
It was another very pretty morning…
We walked to the end of the path atop the hill at the end of our street to watch the sunrise this morning…
Good morning from Northside…
As soon as I’m done working for the day, we’ve been trying to go in the backyard to play ball in our backyard while it’s still light outside. We collected all the tennis balls and put then in this bin. I didn’t realize that we’d accumulated so many tennis balls…
I like this bin because it has open slats across the bottom. Hopefully when it rains, the rain water will rinse some of the dirt off the balls and then drain away.
Bear does an amazing job of bringing his tennis ball back to you. He wants to play with only one ball the entire time we’re in the backyard. If you try to throw him a different ball, he’ll wait for the ball he’s been playing with. Mack is just the opposite. Mack will chase a ball, leave it and then come running back so you can throw him a different tennis ball…
They really love their tennis balls. Oscar doesn’t really care about tennis balls.
They also love their evening walks…
And good evening from Northside…
We finished Ratched on Netflix. It was pretty good, a bit odd but pretty good.
But gosh. It was almost 80º today and the skies were just so pretty all day. I’d definitely take days like today everyday. 😀🌄🐾🎾❤️

And the rest of our Saturday.
It was a grey and overcast Saturday morning in Northside…
Good morning from Northside…
We ran over to the grocery this morning…
They had both the panda bear and the train again today…
And they had lots of my new favorite BBQ Chicken flavor ramen…
There were some great balloons this morning too…
We stopped to get our Saturday morning Mad Llama coffee…
We had this shelf in our kitchen…
Genifer ordered a new sideboard to go in its place…
It took a bit to put together but it turned out pretty nice…
It took too long for Oscar. He was out…
For lunch, we walked down Hamilton Avenue to check out Northside’s new taco shop called Taqueria 251. It was pretty good stuff. I don’t know that we’ll be rushing back. They had this corn appetizer called Esquite that was out of this world good. And they had incredible churros for dessert. I think we’ll still be satisfying our taco cravings at Django Western Taco. But I think our perfect meal would combine the best from the two places.
And good evening from Northside…
And from our backyard…
Before we headed upstairs, we stopped to admire our new sideboard…
It looks really nice in our kitchen. We like it a lot.
then we soldiered through The Reckoning on Netflix. It was just plain bad. There wasn’t one likable character in the entire series. So not good. At all. 😀🌄🐼🚂🎈☕️❤️

A morning trip to Trade Joe’s.
Good morning from Northside…
We ventured out to Trader Joe’s this morning before work, and on the way across town the sunrise sky was so beautiful…
It’s been a minute since we’ve been to Trader Joe’s…
And Mad Llama is right around the corner from Trader Joe’s (kind of)…
When we got home, we finished up our work week before having Trader Joe’s delicious Mandarin Orange Chicken for dinner…
Good evening from Northside…
And then we all crashed out…
It was another long week. Thank goodness it’s Friday. 😀🌄☀️🥡🐔❤️

These photos of Oscar popped up in my Timehop…
He was so cute and so fuzzy in these photos. Thanks for the memories, Timehop. 😀🦕🐾❤️

T+G forever in concrete.
Seven years ago, the Reds lost in the NL Wild Card game to the Pirates…
We didn’t walk the dogs up to the top of the hill at the end of our street this morning. They were working on the end of our street at the bottom of the hill so we went the other way.
Usually, during the day there is one dog on each floor. Oscar hangs out on the first floor most of the time. Mainly because he refuses to go up and down the stairs. So he’ll hang out on whatever floor you put him on…
Bear hangs out with me in the studio on our second floor. He sits behind me while I’m working during the day. But he follows me wherever I go. He’s like my fuzzy shadow…
And Mack sleeps pretty much wherever he likes…
He hangs out on the third floor a lot. Or he also likes sleeping in the front bedroom on the second floor.
This afternoon they poured the concrete out in front of our house to replace our sidewalk. And as soon as they were done and moved on down the block, I went out to write our initials in the concrete…
I’ve never had the opportunity to write anything in concrete before. They smoothed it over once. But I went back out to rewrite our initials…
Later this evening, we slowed down to grill…
As soon as we got inside with all of our delicious grilled food, it started raining. And when we went to take the dog on their walk after we finished eating, there was a beautiful rainbow up at the top of the hill at the end of our street…
Good evening from Northside…
And good evening from our backyard…
It was a really good Tuesday, as far as Tuesdays go. 😀🌄☁️🌈🐾❤️

A bunch of photos of Milan have popped up in my Timehop lately…
Always remembering all the good times with the bud dog. 😀🐾❤️
This cute photo of Oscar also popped up in my Timehop…
As well as these photos of the immortal cat…
It’s hard to believe that the cat has outlived Milan by almost five years. He’s gone but will never be forgotten.

Constructing Northside, finally.
The day got off to an overcast start…
Good morning from Northside…
They started working in front of our house again this morning…
There was a lot going on for quick second on our street…
And that’s the progress they made today…
Good evening from Northside…
Mack and Oscar were all tuckered out…
It’s not everyday construction equipment rips up your street, let alone your front yard. 😀🌄🚧🐾❤️

International Space Station Sunday.
Good morning from Northside…
We ran over to the grocery. They always have different balloons…
I like looking at the balloons. And then we got our Mad Llama coffee…
And we got our delicious Mad Llama bagel turkey sausage, egg and cheese breakfast sammich on an Asiago cheese bagel…
Tomorrow, they’re going to start working on the water mains on our street again. I went out to move the Jetta up to the end of the street and it wouldn’t start. Again. I just had a new battery put in it the last time they worked on our street. I think it’s probably the alternator but we’ll see. This morning, AAA came out to take it to one of their repair centers…
And there it goes. I hope it isn’t too expensive.
Oscar was just hanging out…
It’s Sunday. We must be going to Taft’s Brewpourium for pizza…
We got to watch the crazy end of the Cowboys game…
Taft’s is such great stuff. And today, they had fried mushrooms….
The sky was so pretty this evening…
And good evening from Northside…
We asked the two people standing on the hill what they were watching for, and they said the International Space Station was just about to fly over…
And suddenly, there it was…
It was just a little pinhole of light. It almost just looked a star but it was really moving quickly across the sky…
And there it went…
How neat was that? Just being in the right place at the right time.
It was a really cool way to end a great weekend…
Next week is probably going to be another crazy one. 😀🌄❤️

Oktoberfest In Za House.
Good morning from Northside…
Mack usually hangs out with me in our office while I’m working but today he wandered off. And I found sleeping in my spot on our bed…
When were out on our walk this evening, we saw this yard sign…
Oktoberfest Zinzinnati is traditionally the nation’s largest Oktoberfest and the second largest in the world to the original Oktoberfest in Munich. And apparently even with COVID-19 this year, Oktoberfest Zinzinnati is still taking place around town at favorite Cincinnati eateries and pubs and In Za House at home…
Good evening from Northside….
Oktoberfest Zinzinnati In Za Haus will enable Oktoberfest lovers to get their German on at home by ordering do-it-yourself Oktoberfest Zinzinnati Zelebration Packs. This year’s mostly virtual Oktoberfest starts today and runs through next Saturday, September 27th. PROST!
And good night from our backyard…
Thank goodness, it’s Friday. 😀🌄🥨❤️
