More info care of SWMBO
read your blog. it was cool and if i were loggin on, i think i would be confused. you give no point of reference about the conference ‑ what kind of conference was it, where was it, why did you go?
So, I wanted to give you more information!!!
I went to the NSCA expo. It was a conference about technology that we use in church. My main focus was on live video and all that entails, but they had video stuff, lighting, sound, monitors, desks, wires and all sorts of other stuff! As a nerd, it was great! There were all sorts of gadgets to play with!
The conference was held in Las Vegas, NV and I was there for a couple of days. I took off mid-Wednesday for the 6-hour trip to Vegas, then we crashed that night at a dumpy motel, Thursday morning was up early scouting for a Starbucks. With that quest complete, we headed to the show checking everything out. There were a couple of breakout sessions that I enjoyed mostly the one about lighting. That night we headed to the forums at Caesar's Palace...not to purchase anything, but rather to experience it.
Yeah, you heard me right, I went there to experience it. Now before you think I've gone soft on you, let me tell you I went there with a couple of close friends of mine...one of them is almost completely my opposite in every way. I will refer to that one as Bizarro Tom (BT). Now we both love God tremendously, but other than that we are well and truly opposites!
So BT wanted me to experience the forums and Wynn Las Vegas to try and translate this experience into a web page.
Where was I? Oh, yeah, Thursday evening. So after that, we enjoyed some excellent jazz by Ghallid Ghallab. This guy was off the hook! I really enjoyed him and am planning on dropping some $ at iTunes to put him on my playlist. After that, it was back to the Roach Motel to crash another night.
Friday was hitting the vendors we needed more information from at the expo, then a run to the Wynn Las Vegas to experience that, a quick buffet and hit the road for another 6-hour journey to return. Got home Saturday morning around 0100, took a bit to clean up, then crashed.
Saturday was getting the kids back, making dinner for the in-laws and preparing for Sunday and that was the trip!
