Cody and Morgan will be soaking in some summer rays on the patio of our favorite neighborhood haunt, Southern Crescent, a New Orleans style restaurant and tiki bar.

Join us for little zen and relaxation. We will have the roof to ourselves at ACAC, our downtown gym - and there is also a small infinity pool if you'd like to have a dip.

If yoga is not your thing feel free to enjoy the outdoor pool!
