Atlantic City

So, I'm finally here. My first Atlantic City Pool Convention. I drove down around noon. Checked in at the Borgata and met my parents at the buffet. Now you all know by now that I really hate the big lunches I have been having the last few months, but this had to be the worst. Way too many temptations and way too many choices. I ran out the door screaming. No one should ever eat that much lunch! I'll get an outside shot of the casino. I took it for granted that you have all been here but I have some inside shots.


Cleaning the Chihuly glass.


The view from my very nice room.


After lunch, we went to the Convention Center to set up the booth. When we did that in Orlando last month, it was so hot that day as they didn't have the air on. Just the opposite here. It was freezing! You could see your breath! They won't turn the heat on until tonight. Needless to say, we got out of there really quickly.

We came back and had a few hours before dinner so I went to the pool! I do have pictures of me without a shirt but I decided to spare you. I went in the hot tub too. I told the guys later I did that and they said I obviously haven't been in the pool business for long because then I would know never to go in a public hot tub! They are usually not kept up.






Back in the room for sunset.


We met everyone in the lobby, then cabbed to the Tropicana.


With my parents in the Quarter at the Trop.


The whole gang at PF Changs. Again, I ate way too much. We even had dessert. Thankfully these conventions are only twice a year. I guess I will hit the gym tomorrow.


I hung out with Kevin and Ryan at the sports bar before I headed back. We watched extreme fighting. What is with that?!?
