    It was great speaking with Ricardo Gill, a vendor for the Cleveland Guardians. Although I've seen Ricardo for many years at the games, this was the first time we had a chance to talk. He told me he is an east side resident and has been with the club for 17 amazing seasons.

    Maurice Reedus Jr. aka Sax Man. I took this pic in 2011 after talking to Maurice about his old band, Sly, Slick & Wicked. Maurice passed away in 2018. Many downtown #Cleveland residents/employees/ @Indians and @cavs fans fondly remember Maurice serenading the city.

    Just witnessed something special at the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Cleveland Public Square! As the Solar Eclipse ended, Leeanna Mintz took off her glasses to find Justin Riha proposing on bended knee. It was fantastic to see the couple filled with joy. Leanna said yes 😊👍
