Spent some time in Atlanta recently. I'd passed through the city several times but had never spent any time there. Big mistake! Atlanta is a wonderful and beautiful city. The people that I met there are among the nicest that I've met in all of my travels. While there I stayed at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis Hotel. The place is incredible to say the least! It is ascetically stunning, user friendly, and perfectly situated within the city. A quick subway ride and I was at the airport. Great food and service at the Marquis was the icing on the cake. LOVED my stay there! Almost hated to go home...almost.
While in Atlanta I went to the Escape the Room. I had a great time. If you have never tried one of these places it is a total blast. My team (people I work with) finished with 9 minutes to spare. It is a real challenge but a ton of fun at the same time. I can't wait to try another one.
My Pittsburgh Penguins are in round 2 of the playoffs and I am as happy as a pig in mud. So far they are looking pretty darn good against the Washington Capitals. Love this Penguin team top to bottom! I think that it has the best line-up that I have seen in years. Good luck to the boys in the black and yellow!
Summer is nearly here. I'm hoping to get my lazy backside out on the road. I want to get up into New England and out to see a friend of mine in Detroit. We'll see what ends up happening...although I swear I can hear Willie Nelson singing "On the Road Again"!
Also on my summer list...build a wargaming table. I have found a few folks locally who seem to want to play. I'm leaning towards a Necromunda table, but with so many fantasy figure that may have to wait for another time. Maybe I'll post some pics when I'm done.
Until next time....
