Last night we went to the Festival of Lights at the Cincinnati Zoo with family. We had a great time and took a bunch of pictures:

Here’s photos and a little video from the Obama rally today at Ault Park a few blocks from our house.

…and in local news:

(Middletown, OH) — Saturday night, people in the 3100 block of Wilbraham Road called police to report a woman wearing a cow costume was chasing kids, and blocking traffic.  Michele Allen also allegedly urinated on the porch of one neighbor. When officers arrived, they told her to go home.  But later that night, they found her again, in the 2400 block of Verity, standing in traffic.  This time, officers say, Allen smelled of alcohol and swore at them. She was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct. Allen plead guilty, Monday morning, in Middletown Municipal Court, and sentenced to a month in jail.

So, you lived in Berkeley… You are from Chicago…
Hey, what’s your excuse?
Oh… uhm… my husband’s from New York!
Ah, OK you’re off the hook.

This morning before I started working I took Kiefer for a walk around the north side of Eden Park and took some pictures. Here’s a slide show:

Last Sunday there was a huge wind storm in Cincinnati that knocked out power to nearly a million people. We got ours back after a day but some people are still in the dark. We went out Monday morning, walked to Mt. Lookout Square and took these pictures along the way.

A lot of people have sent us nice emails wishing us luck in our move back to Cincinnati but Scott Parker took the cake when he reworked the WKRP theme to fit my particular situation. Awesomeness.

Hey there, if you’ve ever wondered,

Wondered whatever became of me,
I’m living on the web in Cincinnati,
Cincinnati, Web 2.0 for me.

Got kind of tired packing and unpacking,
Town to town, then SF for a while,
Maybe it was all the tie dye out in Berkeley,
Now please don’t forget to FTP that file…

I’m at Web Two Zero P in Cincinnati..
