Our office won an inter-office contest - 3rd prize was a dinner on the company. I didn't participate in picking out the restaurant since I pretty much only know where John's Italian Restaurant is and of course the Chinese buffet neither of which I think the office is too interested in. So at 6 pm last night we headed out to the Mohegan Sun in Wilkes Barre and I got to be in a casino for the first time in my life. It was huge, you drove along and there it was. We did valet parking, my Honda was very impressed and got there around the right time. I don't remember the name of the restaurant but it was very fancy. As you can see, I was the only one who remembered to bring a camera - when don't I have the camera? Dinner was great, very expensive!, the water alone was $50. I had the grilled portobello mushrooms which was strangely enough the same dish I had been after at the Pocono Brewing Company. I did have a lot of fun, the office I work in is very friendly - sometimes it's a bit intimidating for the same reason as they've all known each other for years and have worked in various places together. We got done around 9 - those of us who live further away headed off (it's about an hour drive for me) those who live close by headed off to the main floor for a little gambling. That I just have no interest in, I don't think I would be very good at it, do you? The parking lot was pretty full for a Monday night but the place is so big it seems like there aren't many people there. But it was fun and it's nice to work for a company that does such things.
