I always end up there when visiting my 10yr senior doc bro, I think unless newcomer tdaver shoots it down it's basically canon

Forgot you were here GFA.  Everyone recommends Red Iguana but I still haven't been yet.  Find anything fun to do?

I work a lot of hours when I travel but have been able to go up to Park City, have checked out a lot of good restaurants.  Thinking about going down to see the Xmas lights tomorrow or Monday night, flying back Tuesday.  Really fun city, great dining and a lot to do for the size.

The Gem City offers many things in winter time, but Mississippi River gondolas are not one of those things.  Perhaps you are thinking of barges? 

I found a Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the KSU cats, but Izzo is in OT against Texas southern.  So here I am alone among a large open concept BWW full of river people all alone.

I was at an AI near PDC for a week. It was fun. The cervazas and tequilas flowed mucho. The food ranged from very excellent to fairly bad. Overall very fun time. Great beaches and pools and people. Euros tan topless as advertised.

i want to go to alaska at the time where there is like no daylight at all.  man, that would be great.  eff the sun.

When I was in Budapest we were in this ruin pub and the sun started coming up.  I was trying to drag a colleague away from this parasite local and I say "let's go man the sun is coming up."  She said "theese ees why I hate summer."  Your one match in the world no doubt.

Napa is really great.  I hated the wine tasting tho.  It was like inviting myself to a tupperware party and the host hovering 3 feet from my face asking which tupperware was the best and which I thought I might like to buy.

yeah, the place was full of KU and Kstate stuff (especially from the Holiday Bowl trips) but it was gutted by a fire in 2008  :frown:, I believe the owners are from KCK
