I’ve never taken a good shot of Music Hall before. And I still haven’t. But one of these days the sky and the light will be just right, and I’ll be there.

Stopped into the 1215 Wine Bar and Coffee Lab for some caffeine. Left with delicious coffee and fishing tips. Great folks there.

Man oh man, am I glad to have stopped into Steam Whistle Letterpress. First of all? Brian that runs the whole shebang is friendly, chock full of ideas, wisdom, and best of all? He’s a solid sense of humor. He does stuff I only dream about. Letterpress. Postcards. Pennants. Stamp kits. Matchbooks. Workshops! And on and on…

Consider this my mental note to get stuff into one sock and get some things made there. In the meantime? I’m buying up his goods with pleasure. Currently just hung the Northside Pennant at home. Next on my list? The Paper Neighborhood kit.

Good stuff. Every last drop of ink, stitch sewn, book bound and indentation into paper.

If you’re in Cincinnati, stop by or check ‘em out online.

Now that’s a hood ornament. Never noticed these until I saw a parked Mack truck on my first day of trying to walk off my spare tire.

A gift from a friend of my mom’s. I had one of these little fold-out car repair shops growing up, and now I have one again. I’m lucky twice.

Easter dinner at mom’s. All the favorite dishes. Rejoice indeed.
