“City tour was a total bust. The owner’s wife filled in for an employee who called in sick. She was SICK! She was coughing and hacking. When she talked it was just to get out the info and she didn’t pay attention to the loud train going by or other outside noises. The beer tent was a blast but skip the city tour. It was useless and hopefully nobody got sick from being near her.”
