Dayton Post Mortem

Here it is in a nutshell:

Thursday--teach school, throw things in the car, meet a SATERN guy from Chicago to caravan to Dayton, arrive Hara Arena about 7:30, make connections, set up the booth, head for the "roach" motel in Lewisburg.  Crash.

Friday--head back to Dayton, make connections at the Arena, greet everyone contributing to the booth, talk to hamfesters, coordinate everyone for dinner at a Chinese buffet, follow the caravan to the University of Dayton to find our dorm, sit up and gossip.  Crash.

Saturday--back to the arena, get ready to address the MIDCARS forum for Major Pat, moderate the SATERN forum, greet people at the booth, coordinate a caravan to find supper, back to the dorm.  Crash.

Sunday--back to the arena, greet people, tear down the booth (noonish), drive from Dayton to Muncie (a full 1 1/2 hours), have a great dinner with my family, talk to my daughter.  Crash.

Monday--watched the grandchildren while Meg did some grocery shopping, played outside,  employed the children to help clean up the back yard, left for home about 2:30.  Four days of school with kids left.  Looking forward to free days ahead!

More later.  I'm just too pooped to write much more.  The dawg and I are home...and I have to be ready for school tomorrow, dammit!
