A day down the Shore

A steady stream of middle aged gamblers, smoky casino floors and a heavy mist that was certainly not conducive for a good hair day were among the many things I found on my trip to Atlantic City yesterday. I had never been to the beach side resort that has obviously seen better days, but it was truly wonderful to leave the city for at least a few hours.

I did not win the jackpot I had envisioned in my head. I did not meet lady luck. And I certainly (and fortunately) did not lose my shirt or anything else for that matter. I did, however, enjoy some good salt water taffy and breathe in some good ocean air for the first time in months. I honestly feel a bit recharged after turning off my cell phone and logging off my computer and those all too addictive social networking sites..., but now it's back to the grind.

Below is a video of the late March weather that did a number on my hair.
