The Third Man
At Old Man’s Cave, Hocking Hills.

Tree Roots
There’s nothing quite like watching a silent film in an ornate, old picture-palace, with accompaniment by the world’s best organist playing on the theatre’s original instrument.

“Sunrise”
You won’t find better silent film audiences anywhere.

Program
The CAPA Summer Movie Series is the longest-running classic film series in the United States and, as far as the powers-that-be know, the world.
We’re blessed to have such an incredible, on-going cultural experience here.

Into the Woods

By the river
A little peek at the Big Darby Creek at Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park:

The Big Darby
My city is well-known for their impressive Fourth of July fireworks display. The festivities are always held ahead of the actual holiday. This year, they were on Friday, 1 July. The Chef and I live right around the corner from the riverfront, where the fireworks are launched. We watched the display from our deck. Although we missed the lower ones due to a tall building being in the way, we saw a good 75% of the show without having to mingle with the throngs. That’s a win. Here are a few pics that I took with my camera phone. They’re not the best, but I think they can qualify as being *mildly* artistic.

The Very Last Blast Looked Like a Fireball

After-Show Smoke
Zero stayed with us for almost two weeks, but he went home on Wednesday. We miss the old man!

It was a touch too warm this morning for a long walk, so we only put in 2 1/2 miles. Such a gorgeous day, though.

Green! Green! Green!
Zero is still staying with us. Since he’s an old, old man, he spends most of his time napping…and looking ridiculously adorable in the process.
