It did give us a chance to see several relatives but we prefer better circumstances. We left immediately following the Mass, burial was private.
That evening we had dinner with a group of friends who were classmates of mine in grade school. That is always a fun time. I didn’t take a picture though.
Wednesday we visited, overlooking the city, from my brother’s recently purchased condo. Then we had dinner in the restaurant in the building, scoring a window seat to continue the view as the city lights came on. Spectacular! We spent over six hours just visiting and enjoyed the evening so much.
Thursday we finally got our new microwave glass plate that I had shipped to my friend Judy. Everyone on both sides of the family had been away from home so I asked if Judy and Joe were going to be around. They gladly agreed to the UPS drop drop off and brought the plate for the turntable over. We had a lots of laughs during a great visit and dinner in west Harrison.
Somewhere along the line we shopped at Sam’s to stock up on our Cincinnati favorite foods, I did some laundry, we shopped at Gabe’s and had dinner at Skyline chili!
I am afraid to go to my weigh-in with all this eating out, but Saturday was another Cincinnati must, LaRosa‘s Pizza, but with a group of Mercy high school class of ‘63 friends. So much fun catching up after 56 years!
After attending Mass in the afternoon, we drove to Bellevue, KY, across the River to see a group, The Belaires, perform.
The Belle of Cincinnati quietly slipped past, her paddle turning, as we listened to the concert. Afterwards there was a fireworks display and it was rather late when we returned home.
