Mid-July to Mid-August 2025 in Columbus
Hello, here are pictures of things that happened in July and August 2025!
July 10 & 12: You know we take walks around our neighborhood in the morning and in the evening!






July 12 & 13: Walking around High Street and then a little concert by one of Liz’s graduating students. She was great!





July 19: More walking! Getting those steps!








And then that afternoon/evening … we went and saw the documentary “Rebel With a Clause” starring and made by neighbor’s of Joel’s New York uncle. And then we got our books signed and THEN we went to Xixia Noodle House and Whooooah yeah that’s the food for me!









August 2: Liz’s first Saturday without clients (they all got moved to weeknights) so it’s time to get up early and enjoy the city! First stop — the Motors and Rotors car and plane show at nearby Bolton Field!










































From there we went to German Village to try out this great bakery, Pistacia Vera, and to check out what they were selling on the sidewalks and in the parking lots.








And then we headed to High Street and environs to look for thrifty vintage finds. Why? Find out next post!





August 8: Liz visited me at work since it was near where she was working that afternoon! And then that evening we tried a new (to us) taco spot, Don Deme, near our house and it was a massive hit! Then we watched the new Naked Gun movie and shared quite a few laughs.





August 9: Up and at ‘em and taking a walk! We saw a snake! And then we went Chinese grocery shopping with our friend Rola for a hot pot evening we hosted the next evening. (Oops! No photos of that.)









Then that night Liz provided music entertainment for a teen hoedown at the Gardner home.











August 11: I ordered a 75mm and 21mm lens. Ultimately, I did not decide to keep them but they were fun to check out. 21mm was just too wide to be practical (as expected) and 75mm I just don’t imagine myself using that much and isn’t that different from 50mm (except it totally is).





























And so, that was our mid-July to mid-August! I hope you will agree that it was anything but mid.
Back soon with a post for a history-making long weekend!
