Fall is here!


Reiko and I headed down to see the WEBN Fireworks at Riverfest last night for the first time in a few years. Quite a show! We didn't end up leaving my folks house until after 6, leaving us with little parking options and a bit of walk. Popped our heads in a local watering hole where we stopped for a drink, and then made our way down to the levee. We had really great seats just right outside the Purple People Eater bridge, giving us a really nice view of the show. Nice array of visuals with notable new pieces during the Johnny Cash "Ring of Fire" (the fire spinwheels!) and these cool zooming swarms used during Nine Inch Nails "Discipline". And on that note, good audio program all around, too!

And thus brought in the beginning of the new season for us! I've always thought of the Labor Day fireworks as the end of summer (as a kid, I was already back in school for a week or so). This year's a bit different for us, as I'm going into my last week of work with OTC. In a way, it was a "going out with a bang", and signified the beginning of the end for our time here in Ohio. We're both really excited about the move (though! not the moving), and look forward to getting on.

On with the fall!
