Hey, what can you say, its the best baseball venue we've got here in SB. You'll never get confused…read morethat you're at Petco park, or even Dodger stadium but then again you won't pay those prices either. And, you can get a lot closer to the action with some great, field level seating just yards away from the base lines. Upstairs is your best bet though, it gets chilly down in the shade but up in the sun you've got a glorious view of the field and the mountains beyond. On top of all that you get great baseball! The Gauchos always put on an excellent show for next to no $$. No beer but a basic snack bar will keep you in hot dogs, peanuts and crackerjacks for the day. Check it out if you've never been :-) Its a great way to spend a Friday, Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Plus, rumor has it that lights will be arriving next season so you'll have evening games to choose from as well :-o

This is a wonderful little theatre to see movies. I was surprised by the comfort of the seats and i…read moreappreciate being able to reserve seats beforehand. The bathrooms are small and there are few staff so the line to get food and get in can get long. Overall, you come to watch a movie and you do that with a comfortable seat of your choosing.

And also with crazy memories of seeing Jaws and Rocky Horror Picture Show right there during their premiere days. And now, after at least 40 years, there we were in the fifth row, watching Licorice Pizza (fabulous movie, a must-see before awards season). Staff was very pleasant and helpful, popcorn, sweets and soda were spot-on, and the seating area was clean and ready for us.

The food prices are up there, but that's the theater. The ticket prices are normal. We were able to buy ahead of time online. They have an option to self purchase inside, or go to the box office. I felt comfortable with the cleanliness inside the theater and throughout the building. The seats weren't anything special but I was comfortable the entire movie. My fiancé wishes they had a Dolby theater for better sound quality. Overall, it made for a great Friday date night experience for us and many many other people flooding in.

Went to see Spider-Man in Screen 4 for the 4:15 PM showing and was unfortunately pretty…read moredisappointed with the experience. We were seated in the furthest back row, directly near the projection window, which was open during the movie. I'm not sure if that's standard, but throughout the film there was a constant noise coming from inside the projection room. It sounded like someone had a sports game or something similar playing on a speaker. Because we were sitting so close to the projection room, we could hear it throughout the movie and it was extremely distracting. It definitely took away from the experience, especially when you're paying to enjoy a movie in a theater where you expect the auditorium to be quiet aside from the film itself. I'm hoping this can be looked into so it doesn't happen during future showings.

We sit out in the outdoor patio that's basically a part of the parking lot with our dog (and now toddler) and it's great. We love the rose the best and most recently, got a taste of the Chardonnay. Jack has been the man every time except we met Hailey (? Sorry if I got your name wrong) this time and they are wonderful.

I love checking out new wineries I haven't been to, and came across this one on Tik Tok. There's ample parking here with other small businesses in this little plaza. Such as Captain Fatty's Brewery and Green Star coffee. The winery itself is located around the corner once you drive in. Look for the signage directing you towards the back. They have a nice outdoor patio area, but I chose to sit inside on my visit. I was the only person there most likely because it was a weekday. I decided to do a tasting of the reds. It was $30, which seemed a little high but the wine is from the Santa Rita Hills region. Anyone who knows about STA. is aware that they have the best Pinots. I enjoyed each tasting and Julie was really good at explaining each pour. The Pinot and Syrah/Grenache/Mourvèdre were my favorites. I also appreciate that I didn't get a headache after sampling the wines. That's a huge plus! Overall, I had a nice experience here. I would love to come back and try their wine specials and listen to live music on a Sunday Funday afternoon.

Ordering through the website wasn't possible so I called to order. Devon was extremely helpful and knew to ask me what temperature it was here in Georgia. I told her it was usually in the mid 90's. She recommended shipping 2nd day or waiting until cooler temperatures in order to keep the phytoplankton alive. They can't tolerate too much heat since the ocean water is typically cool even in full sun. She also gave me helpful advice for caring for the phytoplankton after the experiment and how I could train the experiment to bioluminesce during the day time. Sunnyside Sea Farms could do with an online ordering process, but had I not called, I wouldn't have learned so much about the Fusiform Pyrocystis dinoflagellates from Devon. In any case, my daughter's kindergarten class loved seeing the phytoplankton glow and learning about the luciferase and luciferin chemical reactions within the cell bodies. Also, the phytoplankton were large enough for them to see with a magnifying glass instead of needing a microscope. It was a big hit. Later the children got to experiment with glow sticks and discuss the diphenyl oxolate reactions to hydrogen peroxide. They also hypothesized as to why organisms would evolve this bioluminescent capability.
