New Lofts Banner

I spy something green and white; flying high, flying high.
Hung between two walls of brick; looking slick, looking slick.
No more flapping in the wind; securely pinned, securely pinned.
Come and give The Lofts a visit; you'll be glad you did it, you'll be glad you did it.

Umm, I should go pro.

Upcoming Events

The Monnalisa Bar will have live music on Wednesday, January 27 from 6:30pm to 10:30pm. I can see a theme here with the bands that they book. This time it will be Luxury Trio. Click the link to see who they are. They're going for a classy sip and sway theme.

More to come in February!

Latin Fusion

I saw lots of people shaking their booty today in the Plaza. It was cute to see kida in the back jumping around to the music. Again, that speaks volumes for the family atmosphere at CityCentre. There is a lot of repetition so everything is easy to learn. I enjoyed my usual workout and then stopped by for a few minutes of dancing around. It was dark enough outside for me to work up the courage to wedge in between a few ladies. I was in and out before anyone noticed, I'm sure. I think the whole idea of outdoor classes is going to be great with Spring coming. I'm not sure how many types of classes they'll be able to get out there. The more equipment necessary, the tougher it will be to hold an outdoor class. I don't even care about the grass anymore, it grows back.

I haven't seen any future workouts planned yet and I think they're going to look at how successful today was and make a decision on whether to continue or not. I'll post information as soon as I get it. Remember, these events are no cost and open to the public.

Getting Warmer in January

I don't keep up with the weather, but I've felt that it has been warmer this past week. I wonder when the powder snow (lights) will melt off the trees in CityCentre and when the snowflakes will melt off the side of CityCentre One.

So I had this great idea to write about the local restaurants to get the news out about what to try and, more importantly, what not to try (unless you're feeling adventurous). What I didn't think about was how expensive that proposition would be. I don't think I will completely throw that idea away, I just won't be doing it as much as I want to. I guess one positive will be that I will be able to spend more time to think over the experience and provide a very in depth post.

On another note, I think the local restaurants now know the power of an organized event. The restaurants were packed after The Ride of a Lifetime and I bet they made their numbers that day! Actually, a lot of people didn't even know CityCentre existed until they came to this event. I personally think one of the downfalls of CityCentre is that people just don't know much about this place. When I tell people I live here and work here, they have no clue what I'm talking about.

As a little bonus, check out these BEHIND THE SCENES pictures of The Ride of a Lifetime from a few weeks ago. There are a few pictures from near the top of the hotel, so cool!

Squeezing on Through

The other day I was walking to my car to warm it up (since I rarely drive it), and I noticed a peculiar scene unfolding in front of me. Click on the photo to open up a bigger picture. Remember, you can actually do that with any picture and a full sized version will pop up. If it doesn't pop up then tell me because it means I screwed up the code structure.


Hello new neighbor, welcome to the land of garages that will confuse you and perhaps eat you alive. I see that the overhanging pipes have taken a liking to the top of your U-Haul! Don't worry, they never check the top of the truck when you take it back, pull on through! Oh, you already knew that I guess since you just pulled through. Yes, thank you for going slowly because the sound that you made was SO delightful.

SSSSSSCCCRAAAAAAAAAAAAPEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

Hey it is all good. I don't see any major damage to the pipes. No one will ever know.
