Columbus ... to Cincinnati ... to Columbus

Last Friday night, Pete, Joe and I headed to Columbus. We again met up with our Columbus friends, Jeff and Sharon. We went to the Knead Restaurant on High Street. From there we went to MoJo's and then Joe and I walked up to the Arch City Tavern and eventually The Brothers Drake Meadery.

On Saturday, Pete got ready for the OSU vs Florida A&M game and Joe and I headed to Cincinnati for the Octoberfest.  Joe and I met up with Jeff, Ken, Kevin and Rick in Cincinnati and had a GREAT time at the Annual Octoberfest. Jeff was able to get us VIP passes to the Samuel Adams area.

Another season begins...

Pete and I headed to Columbus on Friday for the first game of the 2013 season.

On Friday evening we hooked up with some Columbus friends who live in the Short North District. Sharon and Jeff took us up the Short North and we stopped for a drink at Arch City Tavern, Barrel 44 Whiskey Bar, North High Brewing and Brothers Drake Meadery. GREAT time and some outstanding restaurants / bars that we would have never found without their guidance.

Buckeye Seniors

Over the weekend, the local "Everything Buckeye" store had four Buckeye Seniors there for an autograph session. I was able to have all four of them sign a photo I had taken at this year's Michigan game. "Go Bucks".
