PASS the BACon

After being home for a week and catching up on a long list of to-dos and recovering from my cold an opportunity opened up to attend the PASS BA Conference in Chicago.  Despite being a bit cold and rainy how could I pass this opportunity up?

The train ride to Chicago arrived at midnight and I set off for a 45 minute walk to my friend's studio (to enjoy the bed I helped move).  The commute during the week to the Sheraton was an easy walk through the magnificent mile.  The days seemed long, from 7:30am to 10pm, but there were packed with learning, networking, working, and a bit of fun (views of the Chicago river and bowling at Lucky Strike).  The week in Chicago concluded early on Saturday morning with a train ride back to Kalamazoo. 

One benefit of the train over driving was that I was able to listen through the entire book of Psalm.  Until my next post, Psalm 136:1 (NIV):

"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good.
His love endures forever."
