Not Our House
It has begun. The college football season has been talked up a lot by a lot of people, so it seemed only right that we should sample some of the atmosphere around game day. We chose not to wear red and seemed to be the only people, apart from a small group from Akron, that didn't. The 12pm (96 degree) kick-off didn't seem to be doing many people any favours, ourselves included. The only sensible thing to do seemed to be to get a Slurpee. Wild Cherry seemed the most natural choice. Ten minutes later I was cooler, but my stomach and teeth weren't so happy. We high-fived a chap we had never met who ran up to us and shouted "Go Bucks!" and OSU won 42-0.
Further downtown, North Market gave some welcome relief from the sun with tomatoes of different shapes and sizes, pretty authentic looking pierogies, more Jeni's ice cream (not for us this time) and some Amish folks selling their fruit and veg. Will be back on the 16th for their microbrew festival. Labor Day tomorrow and slightly more manageable weather now that thunderstorms have killed off the crazy humidity of the last few days.

42-0, close game!
