Pennsylvania Hills

I've been meaning to post for 3 weeks straight, so we definitely have some catching up to do here. Things were a little slow at the office, and we knew the madness of a quarter close and a financial forecast so a group of us went to San Francisco to eat at House of Prime Rib. It was fabulously good food in a really great atmosphere. I can't afford to eat there everyday, but next time I have some money burning a hole in my pocket or need to celebrate something it will definitely be at the top of my list. Last weekend was my good friend Adam's wedding. I met Adam while at USF, and we spent a lot of late nights working on group projects, and even more later nights at Applebees and the Copper Top in Temple Terrace. It was a fun wedding and required a cross country trip to Wilkes-Barre Pennsylvania. Last Thursday I worked until 9:00 p.m., went home to finish packing and slept for a couple of ours before leaving for the airport at 4:00 a.m. We flew first class, where the featured coctail for the flight was bellinis. After 4 of them and a tasty quiche for breakfast I slept for the rest of the flight. From JFK we rented a Pontiac G6 that we really enjoyed that included the Hertz Neverlost system. It came in real handy since we had to move through 3 states in a short amount of time. We found a nice little restaurant called Haystacks that served addiction forming potato pancakes. Adam + Heather's wedding was a very nice little catholic ceremony and the reception was at the golf club pictured here. After the reception they had rented out the hotel bar so we huddled around a tv to watch the 4th quarter of the Auburn/Florida Game. Adam's a UF grad, and a lot of his fraternity brothers were there. They made the saddest little faces as both of Wes Byrum's kicks went through the uprights to win the game. We couldn't get on any flights offered by W's employer, but fortunately for us she gets a discount on Jetblue also, and there coach seats are nice and roomy and offer your own direct tv screen in every seat. I watched the simpsons and Family Guy, and then watched the sunday night football game. It wasn't first class, but it could have been a lot worse
