I Just Booked…

atlantic-city-boardwalk

… my first trip to Atlantic City, NJ.  I’ll be staying at a LOW-BUDGET HOTEL A BLOCK OFF THE BOARDWALK.

When I was a child – very young – about 2-3, my grandparents/parents took me to Atlantic City. I still remember, it was the first time I saw the ocean.  I’m pretty sure it was such an impromptu trip that I didn’t have a bathing suit and just swam in my underwear.

I remember my Grandfather holding frantically to my hand as we walked in the surf.  And I remember vividly the steak we ate at a restaurant on the Boardwalk.

The last time I was there, probably early 2000’s and was just a day trip from Philly when I took my brother and cousins.  I don’t remember a lot about it – just the beach and finding a place to park was a pain.

This trip will happen after I close CHICAGO on Sunday, July 22nd.  It will be my third full production since April and I am beginning to get weary.

However, booking this today has given me something more immediate to look forward to – not just our impending return to VEGAS SEPTEMBER 1-6!

I’m excited to go back and RUN, BIKE AND WALK THE LENGTH OF THE BOARDWALK. I can’t think of a better way to see it through the eyes of an adult!

And now a moratorium on spending goes into FULL EFFECT!
