SD Getaway

 One of my favorite views!  We have gotten used to this with our annual stay at the Hilton Bayfront.  This time Matt and I snuck away for the night and had a corner room...a view of the bay from one window
 and a view of downtown from the other!  
We checked into the hotel and then walked into the Gaslamp to have dinner at watch the KU game before meeting up with friends and co-workers.
We had the most delicious meal at Barley and Mash.  I got the pulled pork mac n' cheese!!
After dinner, we walked to Moonshine Flats to try and get a table before everyone began to arrive.  What a cool place!  It is a fun country bar with loud music, tons of tvs, ping pong, a pool table, corn hole, beer pong and a concert venue.  Matt organized the event to congratulate Josh on his promotion to Sergeant and a nice showing of friends helped make it a special night for him!
 There was no shortage of drinks coming his way, but he seemed to handle it alright.  I really enjoyed the time away with Matt and loved listening to work stories and seeing the respect they all have for each other! 

 Making this walk back to the hotel was such a good idea versus having to make the hour drive home tonight.
 Even better was waking up and taking a nice long stroll along the bay and getting breakfast at Seaport Village before heading back home...
