[Chaos-l] Medoc tonight yes

[Mark Montazer]

Robert,

The trip back wasn't bad at all. I did end up going the highway route, but
can definitely understand what you mean.

I really enjoyed the evening at Medoc. Allen was super helpful and everyone
was very friendly and welcoming. The skies were pretty much the same as you
experienced, except we had the benefit of a toasty fire to help us endure
the first batch of clouds. :)

Mark
