Up among the rooftops.

This evening we hit up both rooftop bars in downtown Cincinnati. We started with the
Cocktail Terrace at 21c Museum Hotel. The first day of their season was Wednesday.
And we have been chomping at the bit to get back up there...

I honestly don't know which rooftop patio I like better. And let me tell you, trying to decide
your favorite rooftop bar in downtown Cincinnati is a pretty tough problem to have. :)

Seen and noted.

We saw our first Newport Ride the Ducks boat of the season!
Newport Ride the Ducks boat
At the beginning of every summer we've said we're going to Ride the Ducks. And then
summer flies by so fast, and we missed taking a duck boat ride again. No more excuses,
this summer I'm making it my mission to make sure we definitely Ride the Ducks. :)

Cincinati Earth Day.

This afternoon we headed down to Sawyer Point to check out the Earth Day celebration...
