Over a couple of beers, he asked for my recommendation on a few places to take the kids for fun while they were here. Along with the 'usual' tourist attractions, I mentioned that just a few weeks ago I took my son and wife to 'Snow City'. I explained that although it's not big, it makes for a pleasant diversion from the humidity that he was struggling with somewhat, and that the kids would love to have a ... Read Full Story
