Our view from the Ritz in downtown Atlanta
Since we no longer had a baseball game to attend we decided
to spend the afternoon touring Sweetwater Brewery.
And by touring I mean
drinking really good beer.
After “sampling” practically all of the beer available at
the brewery we headed back to our fancy dancy hotel to clean up and get ready
to go out for dinner.
Which was pretty pointless because the torrential downpour
outside made us both look like wet dogs.
See? Wet dogs.
We ended the night by enjoying a few more drinks at an Irish
pub across the street from our hotel. We were even served by a real Irish bartender!
Cheers!
Sunday we woke up and drove an hour north to visit Steven’s
family. We were greeted by Steven’s dad, who within 10 minutes of seeing us exclaimed
that we were going to take a family Cruise this fall and that he really wanted
a tattoo. We aren’t really sure what got into him, but sure enough we spent the
majority of Sunday at a tattoo parlor watching my future father in-law get his
very first tattoo. He was recently declared cancer free after fighting
colon cancer for almost a year, so who were we to stop him??
I didn't get a picture of the final product, but here is a sketch of the tattoo (without the signature of course).
All in all, I would call it a pretty eventful weekend.
Now I'm off to get the puppies out of doggie jail. They had to be boarded while we were away. Poor babies!
