They were really encouraging and helpful! The party room was not huge, but definitely had a fun, lively atmosphere! There was also a parents night out/kids event in the other rink which is smaller. Yes, they have two rinks! I will definitely be bringing my daughter next time!

Wow. What a great place. I almost don't want to write this review and gatekeep this spot for fear…read morethat it'll be swamped by crowds, but honestly everyone should know about it! It's a great place to skate for all ages, from tiny tots (who they have small ice walkers for) to college students (who they have free ice skate rentals for on Tuesday's at 7) to adults (great date idea if at least one of you has firm footing on ice). We went on Tuesday as College Night attendees, and luckily for us, it was also Taco Tuesday!! Val, one of the guys working the Rinkside Cafe, makes birria tacos and they're absolutely delicious. Completely surpassed my expectations for an ice rink cafe taco for sure. Warm, cheesy, umami delight. A huge reward after falling on the freezing cold ice while sliding around on skates. The veggie taco is also pretty good; a nice complement to all the heavier dairy and meat. Definitely come check this place out, both for the recreation and for the food!

And, you can get a lot closer to the action with some great, field level seating just yards away from the base lines. Upstairs is your best bet though, it gets chilly down in the shade but up in the sun you've got a glorious view of the field and the mountains beyond. On top of all that you get great baseball! The Gauchos always put on an excellent show for next to no $$. No beer but a basic snack bar will keep you in hot dogs, peanuts and crackerjacks for the day. Check it out if you've never been :-) Its a great way to spend a Friday, Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Plus, rumor has it that lights will be arriving next season so you'll have evening games to choose from as well :-o

And now, after at least 40 years, there we were in the fifth row, watching Licorice Pizza (fabulous movie, a must-see before awards season).

I love checking out new wineries I haven't been to, and came across this one on Tik Tok. There's ample parking here with other small businesses in this little plaza. Such as Captain Fatty's Brewery and Green Star coffee. The winery itself is located around the corner once you drive in. Look for the signage directing you towards the back. They have a nice outdoor patio area, but I chose to sit inside on my visit. I was the only person there most likely because it was a weekday. I decided to do a tasting of the reds. It was $30, which seemed a little high but the wine is from the Santa Rita Hills region. Anyone who knows about STA. is aware that they have the best Pinots. I enjoyed each tasting and Julie was really good at explaining each pour. The Pinot and Syrah/Grenache/Mourvèdre were my favorites. I also appreciate that I didn't get a headache after sampling the wines. That's a huge plus! Overall, I had a nice experience here. I would love to come back and try their wine specials and listen to live music on a Sunday Funday afternoon.

Ordering through the website wasn't possible so I called to order. Devon was extremely helpful and knew to ask me what temperature it was here in Georgia. I told her it was usually in the mid 90's. She recommended shipping 2nd day or waiting until cooler temperatures in order to keep the phytoplankton alive. They can't tolerate too much heat since the ocean water is typically cool even in full sun. She also gave me helpful advice for caring for the phytoplankton after the experiment and how I could train the experiment to bioluminesce during the day time. Sunnyside Sea Farms could do with an online ordering process, but had I not called, I wouldn't have learned so much about the Fusiform Pyrocystis dinoflagellates from Devon. In any case, my daughter's kindergarten class loved seeing the phytoplankton glow and learning about the luciferase and luciferin chemical reactions within the cell bodies. Also, the phytoplankton were large enough for them to see with a magnifying glass instead of needing a microscope. It was a big hit. Later the children got to experiment with glow sticks and discuss the diphenyl oxolate reactions to hydrogen peroxide. They also hypothesized as to why organisms would evolve this bioluminescent capability.

While the schools have prioritized reaching out to alumni for donations, they need to take accountability for improving the job market, to make sure their graduates have jobs. I'm sure the chancellor and other high level staff, sometimes making upwards of a million dollars in salaries, are smart enough to figure out how to help create more jobs and place graduates in them. If you're looking for an education in order to get a job, I'd say pass.
