Cave B Inn -- overall good times
I'm exhausted, but here I am at work. Monday through Wednesday of this week was spent at Cave B Inn -- I had a lovely 2 bedroom cliffhouse and it was awesome. I organized this all-team offsite meeting event at Cave B Inn which is why I was there in the first place. I'd say for the most part the resort itself was lovely. The rooms were great, the wine was ok (I only had merlot) and the food was ok. I say the wine was ok because I only had one glass and it was quite oakey. I figure that I can't make a real assessment, but it was still a good glass nonetheless.
The food...left me wondering why people think this place is a fantastic place to eat. The plating of the food was great, but it was so-so in my opinion in terms of taste. Perhaps I'd been influenced too much by what I had heard and read, but I was expecting the food to blow me away, but it was pretty standard restaurant fair.
I would definitely return to the resort just to relax. The views of the gorge and the Columbia River were awesome -- we also were in the perfect position to see the large electricity-gathering wind mills (for those of you who aren't familiar with this stretch of I-90 in central Washington, right after you cross the Columbia River there are these huge wind mills on the west side of the river). The wind mills blink simultaneously at night so that planes don't fly into them. The room was comfortable in all possible ways except that the wireless internet was intermittent, but if I were to return I would not want to be checking my email that's for sure!
Ok...so like I said the resort was good times. The meetings we had overall were productive and I think that people walked away feeling good, but there were some rather tense moments included in all of this of which I am not going to blog about. :)
Today and tomorrow--and all-day project course training sessions. I'd better make a SBUX run now before I start shaking. :)
