Long weekend getaway

Hello Lurkers,

This weekend (plus a couple of days) found me in Atlantic City for the first time in years. Twas a fun time gambling (aka donating cash to casinos) and sampling some restaurants. The amusing kick was that our hotel bills were "comped" so we only paid~17$ dollars for two nights of lodging.

Then on Sunday, I relocated to the West Chester PA region in support of a B-day party for Sarah Marsho. Ben lined up a limo and a nice reservation at the Continental in Philadelphia. This was a tapas setup with decent food both in quality and selection...as well as some amusing drinks. The most humorous drink was the Buzz Aldrin which Ben drank...it was some type of vodka or brandy...in a glass which had Tang lining the edge. Unusualy but tasty. After dinner, a few more bars were hit....resulting in my getting to bed after 3 AM. (latest night I can remember in years).

Now it is back in Fredericksburg for a quiet week to hopefully include getting some work done (must pay off the gambling debt....)

the upcoming pirate weekend won't be nearly as exciting except for the food on sticks
