The Chocolate Bar

The wife and I made our way to the Chocolate Bar in Reno yesterday www.thechocbar.com. It was our anniversary so we needed a nice place to go have some desert after our dinner at Johnny's. The Chocolate Bar is a pretty cool bar/cafe kind of place. We made a reservation for 7:30 although we probably could have just walked in.
We decide to go with a chocolate fondue (like in the picture), and the wife got a cotton candy martini. Both things were definitely tasty, strawberries and chocolate are the best. It's an interesting place, along the bar they had little 5 or 6 inch TV's playing old black and white Mickey Mouse cartoons. The seating area has a long bench seat along the wall and ottoman like seats on the opposite side of the tables. A little expensive, but good for an anniversary desert.

WSCB (Western States Cobra Bash) Photos





These are few photos from this last weekends western states cobra bash held in Reno. This is a group of about 200 cars that meet in Reno and Sparks Nevada every year. The group is mostly made up of Shelby Cobra replicas along with a few GT40 replicas. Saturday was a show and shine in Victorian Square in Sparks. Here's a link to the WSCB website. A lot of nice cars there. I was hoping to talk to some people from ERA, but there was no one attending the booth in the parking garage. Maybe next year I can meet them and possibly take a seat in one of their cars.

Finally time for finals


Yep time for finals, and not a moment too soon. I took one today and I can already feel the weight coming off my shoulders. I have one more tomorrow and then I'm done... until next semester. This was one of the tougher semesters for sure (well they're all tough), but at least this semester I feel like I learned something that I'll be able to use to make some money.
All this time and I finally learned something useful. Just my opinion but college is a joke, and it's not very funny.
