The Weather here

by

So the weather here in Cleveland today is fantastic!  It’s about 60 degrees right now and is only going to get to 68 degrees by this afternoon.  Our evenings have been nice and cool around 55 degrees to 60 degrees.

 We aren’t sweating or complaining that it’s hot.  We’ve turned off our air conditioners.  Instead we are taking long evening walks, eating ice cream outside (without it melting down our arms), driving with the windows down, relaxing in front of a fan and just enjoying Cleveland!

Vino

by

So you’re already out and about today in Cleveland and you’re getting thirsty, very thirsty.  Stop by The Studio of Five Rings and attend one of their free summer wine tastings.

The event is happening today from noon to 7pm, so you have plenty of time to get ready :)  give them a call to make a reservation as well. The Studio of Five Rings is also an art gallery, so bring your metro-sexual self on down and taste some of Cleveland’s finest wine.  With a quote like this: “To fully appreciate works of art, it requires us to step out of our busy lives and enjoy the moment of observing it, treasuring it.” (taken from the studio of five rings website) how can you go wrong? 

Enjoy and take a sip for me.
