Here is the beautiful Cincinnati skyline, taken from Central
Bridge connecting Newport to Cincinnati.
I think people here consider anything on the Ohio River as
“water front”. Since I was raised in
Florida, I cannot wrap my brain around this concept. Yes, it’s water… but, ah, not sure what to
say here… I hate to be negative, but
really, it’s just an industrial waterway used by coal barges, the water is very brown, and there is litter
floating along the edges. Not my idea of
scenic beauty. If I had my choice, I’d
prefer a real jungle over the concrete one, as well. Wait a minute, I do have a choice! So, I’ve decided I want sea water and
greenery over river water and city.
Suppose that means I need to plan my escape. Maybe I should rename my blog. Escape from
Northern KY!
Of course, this could be just the Key West vacation lingering in my mind... I've got salt water on the brain!
In defense of the Midwest, the air is getting crisp and the
leaves are changing colors. I’m looking
forward to hiking through fallen leaves, I just love the sound brown leaves
make when they are crushed underfoot. I
may be singing a different tune when the temps continue to plunge though, and
the beautiful colors of fall turn into a white winter.
