Marietta, GA (USA)
Up early again - had to finish all our work and write-ups before noon. Got everything done on time and then met up with a HUGE lunch crowd. We went to everyone's favorite: Williamson's Bar-B-Que. Hadn't been there in a few years - it was good. Saw around 20 guys I haven't seen in forever, including my old boss. He told me he thought I had retired years ago (that makes me old, doesn't it?). Networked pretty well - lots of good job prospects for someday in the future... On the way back, stopped to visit by friend Thom - who still works in the same office as he always had. We talked about the city, old friends and the Knights. Brought back how much I miss the guys from here... Walked over to see the ladies who coordinated my Master's Degree Program - they were glad to see me. Turns out, they are moving to another office next month - so I would have missed them if I came by later. Good visits all around all day! One more round of meetings and a wrap up for the group around 1630. In the hotel (Hyatt Regency Suites Atlanta Northwest at Windy Hill) around 1700 - just planning to relax tonight. Got some good work done tonight - can probably go home right after we get back to Fort Worth (I hope)...
