City Rainbow by cdonohoue

City Rainbow

This is the banks of the Ohio from the Kentucky side looking back at the city of Cincinnati. In the foreground is the old Mike Fink's restaurant. Cincinnati is a river boat city - the original economy was founded here, on this river. This restaurant was in it's hey day in the early '80's. It has been long shut down with a tattered sign that says "closed for remodeling." We went to a cool BBQ restaurant, Eli's, last night and then crossed the river to see the sunset. Thank God, and I mean that sincerely, we are to have a decent day today with temps climbing to the 50's with no rain. I need to get busy and get my house a little cleaner. I am going to a raptor lecture tonight at Spring Grove and am excited about that. Tomorrow we are going to Indy to see my boys. I hope to catch up on my commenting some time this afternoon.
Nice golden glow... I like the light on the walkway over to the boat and on the lines which lead back to the bottom right.

Beautiful sky and skyline. Too bad about the decline of the riverboat restaurant. I guess these things come and go. Maybe it will spark someone's entrepreneurial spirit soon and truly be remodeled. Have a wonderful visit with your sons!
