a little while back i visited the Huntley Hotel in Santa Monica, Ca for my girlfriends birthday.  a surprise night.  we landed up at the top of the hotel, what’s called the Penthouse.  Amazing views from coast to coast.  great atmospheric bar.  interesting people.  and one hell of a cucumber cocktail somethin’ or other.  man was it tasty and refreshing!  i could go for one right now.  but it’s lent, so no booze for 40 days total.  i’m not even catholic, but i am doing it.  don’t ask.  it’s a long story.

if you are ever in santa monica, i would highly recommend you visit the Huntley Hotels Penthouse restaurant/bar.  it’s a grand place.  and get the cucumber cocktail.  oh yeah and be sure to visit the restroom, the handicap stall.  there is a huge window in there with an amazing view for you while you do your business.  sorry boys, not sure what your stall looks like.

here’s to cucumbers:
