Washington DC!

Hotel and flight are booked, notice/vacation time put in, last day is July 26th and I leave on the 27th. I am going to spend two nights in DC before my conferences on the 29th. I am really looking forward to seeing the sights and checking out our nations capital, as I have never been on the east coast let alone in DC. I am staying at the http://www.washingtonplazahotel.com/, courtesy of my employee of the year award. It is definitely making it feel more real each step I take and I cannot wait till the next one!

Gear!!!!

One of the cooler parts of preparation is the cool gear I get to buy. I love gear so much and this is an opportunity to get some things I have been putting off. Such as a sweet new camera, one more travel size oriented. Also a new laptop to replace the one that was stolen, and I am waiting for them to come here today and they should be here any minute...It is like Christmas! Oh and another cool part is all the congratulations. Keep them coming people I do not mine one bit, it is nice to be appreciated, and on that note and the horrible structure of this note, tüschss!
