So, I am kind of cheating… I didn’t actually take any photos today.   But my husband took a couple of really nice shots at our son’s first soccer game of the fall season today (I am assistant-coaching, so I couldn’t man the camera).  I figured I would rather post his nice shots than skip a [...]

Theme: Our Town If you couldn’t get a ticket to attend the Bengal’s game at Paul Brown Stadium, heading down to watch the game on the big-screen at Fountain Square in the heart of downtown Cincinnati just might be the next best thing. Fans get the atmosphere and comraderie of [...]

Theme: What’s Inside? A peek inside my stinky old soccer bag.  What’s inside?  …Well, you never really know- you hope that there are 2 shoes, 2 guards, and 2 socks.  But, you may also find: crumpled schedules, 1/2 empty water bottles, toys, food (or crumbs), dirt, 6 socks (four of which desperately need washing), damp t-shirts, germinating [...]

Theme: Sandy The sand volleyball courts are just about the closest thing you’ll find that resembles a beach in Cincinnati…  These actually are along the Ohio River (kind of).  These people were playing on the court next to ours, and they were pretty stinking good.
