I woke up early for a 7 a.m. flight from Huntsville through Atlanta to Houston. When boarding the full plane in Atlanta there was a brief Ben Stiller moment (think meet the parents) with the boarding agent. She didn't call "group three" to board and there were about five people left so I just went to get on and she said we aren't boarding group three yet. And in about 2 seconds she said "okay, now boarding group three". I thought it was funny. Art imitating life or vice versa.
After an uneventful flight I caught a shuttle to the convention center (luggage in tow) and went straight to work learning one of my jobs. I am working with about 20 people from all over the country. Sunday and Monday I am working with Barbara Black checking in the teachers. It is awesome to meet the teachers and quilters whose books I have bought,read, and followed.
After a full day about 12 of us went to a local authentic Mexican restaurant called Ninfa's. The wait was forever and the food mediocre and expensive unfortunately. After 9 pm I finally got checked into the Hyatt. Nicest hotel I have probably ever been in (besides the Grand Wailea in Maui).
More exciting adventure to come.
