user: Well, I wish the lines were a little shorter... 15 minutes is better than Disney, but this ain't Disney... They do have the best water rides here though (and lots of them). My kids were impressed with the "play area", Amy liked the wave pool and the "lazy river", while I gravitated towards the big rides. Some of which I'm amazed they even let children ride. The bathrooms are clean, staff is friendly, and the changing area is decent. Keep in mind that the ticket price is only half the battle - allow for tube rental, lockers, parking, and snacks when you plan this trip. FYI - you CAN bring your own unopened water bottles with you. When we bought our tickets they had a buy once use twice special going (so we will be back later this summer).

Good: They were very friendly and the store is new and clean with a nice raised outdoor patio and it's next to Starbucks.   Not good: $5 for a BLT. Nothing else. Not what I was expecting at all. Basically a burger without the burger. Cold dry bun. 1 slice of tomato. Iceberg lettuce. Old tasting crumbly hard bacon. No mayo. No condiments of any kind. Dry, boring, overpriced, unsatisfying. Felt like they just figured out a way to throw together their leftover ingredients without a burger and make it sound like something good and make a huge profit off ingredients that cost them a quarter.

Yay! Had a great experience at Lust Beautyworks last night. During my short stay in Madison, I realized I was up for a highlight. My poor planning landed me yelping all local salons in Madison looking for a salon that wouldn't dig deep into my wallet for a color and had last minute openings.  Lust fit these criteria- I scheduled a week and a half in advance and they have totally reasonable prices so I gave it a shot. What a great experience I had!    When I made the appointment I did not write anything down. I just saved the number and clicked on a few yelp pages until I found the number day of the appointment. Turns out the owner of Lust, Janet was the previous owner of Glamdring beauty. Found the address, typed it into my gps and off I was in search of Glamdring. After finding what I thought was the correct salon, I was surprised to find a Sorry we are closed sign and a pitch black salon. Next, I called the number and after a very few confused statements/questions/mumbles realized my appt was at a completely different salon, one of which had the same number listed. That salon being Lust Beautyworks. From then on, the evening ran smoothly.    Lust is a spunky space filled with a hodgepodge of intriguing and flat out strange items that are plenty to keep your interest during the appointment. The music filling the room is eclectic matching Janet and Liz's style.     Liz is a bubbly, funny, and all around delight to be paired with for a hair appointment. Sipping on my PBR my two hours spent in the salon flew by. I requested a straightforward highlight and thats exactly what I received. Color turned out perfect. Following the blow dry she offered to use the curling wand on my straight locks. Of course I could not pass that up! She curled my hair and demonstrated how easy it is to use the hair tool. It was refreshing to have a different look for the night and I appreciated the extra time spent.    Give Lust Beautyworks a visit!

I love beer, craft beer to be specific. When I visited Pittsburgh I had to make a visit for top notch craft beer. Unfortunately did not have enough time to visit Fat Heads during my visit, but Church Brew filled my need for craft beer.  I loved the setting, some might think a church being converted into a brew house is wrong, but they really have done a nice job here. It is definitely a prettier setting for a brew house than I am used to.  The waitress we had was really nice and suggested that we go with a sampler since we were trying various beers. This was a great idea and let us sample all the draft beers they serve. I enjoyed all the beer I sampled, some more than others, but they were all tasty.  As a visitor to Pittsburgh unfortunately Church Brew Works is in what appears to be middle of nowhere, but it was well worth the cab fare.
