There isn't a whole lot that i could really say about these pictures. I think they speak for themselves in many ways. I wouldn't normally post stories or pictures about parties, mainly because my family and others have become good at utilizing the internet in an attempt to keep some tabs on me. Last Thirsty Thursday was an absolute blast though. I had no intentions of drinking, other than at a wine training that i attended for work. We sampled about 6 different wines and ate delicious fruit and cheese, as we learned about each one of them and how they could benefit our customers' dining experience.
There is a "tradition" i suppose, in which the employees gather in the bar at Bellisio's to drink the remaining open bottles left over from the tasting. I spent 3 hours in the bar, polishing off a bottle of merlot by myself (although i was sitting with three other women) and helping them with the other bottles. It was a good thing i was riding my mountain bike that day, because when i got out of there, i was one wino that had definitely tasted his share. It was an interesting ride home from Canal Park up to my house on the hillside.
The night didn't end there though, i proceeded to the liquor store 15 minutes before closing to make my final purchases for the night. Thereafter i ventured to my friend Shelly and Chelsea's house to continue on with the nights' festivities. Needless to say, we wound up having a good time. We meandered down to Lake Superior about 2am to throw some rocks in and enjoy the waves crashing on the shore, while we sipped on some beverages.
Thanks to Shelly for letting me crash at her place!
