And so we come to the
end of yet another odyssey with Alphabe-Thursday!
What a challenge it has been at times to come up with a creative post
for the current letter of the alphabet. I've enjoyed this journey with
you, my readers and fellow
Alphabe-Thursdayers, sharing our posts and lives.
Thanks, Jenny! You've created a fun and inspiring community!

Dear Ms.Jenny,
I LOVE
Alphabe-Thursday! Thank you so much for hostessing this awesome meme once again! You have created a wonderful community
of bloggers.
It is often
challenging to come up with a post for each letter as well as committing
to posting for every letter. But it is so much FUN!
So begins Round 9 in which we start with the Letter "A." Come visit others' submissions HERE and join in the fun!
NOTE: You do not have to post for every letter.

a family excursion to Northside, Cincinnati, involves a lunch at Melt, and photographic wanderings and musings...
Nestled between I 74 and I 75, practically surrounded by several parks, north and slightly west of downtown Cincinnati, Northside calls itself an "urban village."
A "real" population began to develop in the 1820s with the development of the Miami-Erie Canal and the CH&D Railroad. This area, originally named Cumminsville, became known as a place Cincinnatians could visit to get away from the city.
After WWII, industry exploded, and the highway system became well developed. People no longer had to live near their work. Thus began the exodus to more rural areas, and Cumminsville declined.

Northside (name changed a few decades ago) has experienced a renaissance in recent years. The community strives to be a hip, holistic, diverse, and sustainable environment, providing a variety of cultural, work, and educational opportunities.
