URBAN ABSTRACT: OVER THE RHINE

This event is limited to our Event members current on dues.

Join in the fun of learning how to look at the familiar through new eyes. One sense of abstract is to Identify something of interest, then abstract (remove) the surroundings. Our city’s largest historic district, Over-the-Rhine is believed to have the single largest grouping in our country of Italianate Architecture, similar to New York City’s Greenwich Village.

From inside and around Findley Market we will begin our adventure though OTC to Music Hall and then eastward. This area is rich in imagery to capture. Then if you have an appetite we will take in the ever popular, The Eagle Food and Beer Hall near Vine St and 14th.

I will be brining a wide – telephoto zoom lens.

Parking Suggestion: A 450-space underground parking garage at Washington Park is located directly across Elm Street from the front doors of Music Hall. Then ride the Connector Streetcar, you are at Stop 8, a few feet north of garage. Exit Stop 12 in front of our meeting location. After our event ends walk westward 3 blocks to parking garage. PAY PRIOR TO ARRIVING AT YOUR CAR – AT A PAY STATION – located inside glass entrances to garage.

ACTUAL DATE WILL LIKELY VARY AS WE ARE SEEKING AN IDEAL DAY IN MAY. MUST BE FLEXIBLE ON ACTUAL DATE

EVENT LIMITED TO NEW TRAIL MEMBERS OR EVENT MEMBERS CURRENT ON DUES.

We are planning a day of waterfalling with our good member, author and state water fall expert, Tina Karle in May. As Tina has published seven books on waterfalling in Ohio, she knows her stuff. Participants will need to be flexible on the date. A couple factors we will be giving consideration to will be the proximity of rain within a few days before and reasonable weather the day of.

Our day will fall either the first, second or third weekend in May and will occur on either Saturday, May 7th, Sunday the 15th, or Saturday 21st.
Meet Tina Karle for a day of Ohio Waterfalls. Visit waterfalls northeast of Dayton, like John Bryan State Park, Massie’s Creek, and Clifton Mill, to name a few. Not to be missed. Sorry we can only do 10 people, but parking at falls is limited in most cases.

INDICATE YOUR SINCERE INTEREST ONLY, LIMITED TO 10 PERSONS, AND OFFER YOUR THOUGHTS IN COMMENT SECTION

Bring:
water boots, towel in case of rain, umbrella, snack, wide angle lens, polarizer filter and filter in case of sunshine, dry socks, change of clothes just in case.

Tina says, “Hiking with me is always an adventure. You NEVER know what you may get to see or get into! As others who have been on my hikes will attest adventures seem to always happen on one of my meetups! I DO carry a first aid kit now with me due to a recent mishap I had while out with a friend back in October. A simple rock on a misstep can sure ruin a day! I want everyone to be safe and I do my best to do so for everyone! But rocks in creeks have a mind of their own and a misjudged footing can lead to a dunking!”

We also need to ride share to save on gas!

We WILL be getting lunch while out on this meetup.
Plan for a good portion of a day.

The museum honors past Cincinnati firefighting efforts, celebrates today’s firefighting advancements and champions fire safety. In 1853, Cincinnati created the nation’s first paid professional fire department, and its organizational plan became a model for other cities across the country. Cincinnati has also been known for its prominent role in the technological and organizational development of the American Fire Department.

The building that now houses the Cincinnati Fire Museum was once home to the Engine Company #45 Fire House (in 1906). The Cincinnati Fire Museum is in the National Register of Historic Places because of its architectural design and the city’s primary architect, Harry Hake. When the Engine Company #45 was decommissioned in 1962 it became a city storehouse, and in 1980 was given new life as the Cincinnati Fire Museum.

If we can at least confirm 10 people, they will provide an educational and informative guided tour. If we don’t get 10 confirmations, we’ll do the self-guided tour.

The Steam Engine Era Collection (1853-1912)
The Modern Era Collection (1913-Present) “The Safe House” is a place where a visitor can experience the true danger of a fire in their home.
