Terminal
It has been a while since I blogged from an airport. This year I really did not travel a whole lot... only one trip to the west coast, and most of my other trips involved me driving (Chicago, Indianapolis, and Michigan trips). So to welcome me back to the life in an airport... I am stuck in the ATL Airport for 5 hours. Fun... it is not my fault, I was up in time to try and fly stand by, but some other people made me late, and I missed getting on the 9am flight by 5 minutes! So now I am waiting until 2:30PM... tons of fun, at least I have internet.

Anyhow AFA (Association of Fraternity Advisors) Annual Meeting was awesome! It was my fourth conference and I had a ton of fun. Some highlights... seeing Stevan Veldkamp my undergrad Greek Advisor and continued Mentor, hanging out with the Beta/Gamma crew and the famed Mary Peterson was fun as always, seeing old friends, and making new friends. It is just a good time to fellowship with people who do the same thing I do... so we all speak the same langauge, but here at the conference we don't talk about it. We talk about kids, hobbies, funny stories and just relax and enjoy the good company. It is a like a little pep up at the end of the year and I am glad I came.

I did the WRGLC DIsplay again and that turned out well, I love being in the association and I am very excited for our upcoming conference this year. I know it will be the best one ever! Another good thing was that I did not have to travel back with our red display tube... WRGA paid to ship it for me. A big surprise to me was that I was nominated and accepted to serve on the Board of Directors for Gamma Sigma Alpha. It is an honorary society for fraternity and sorority members who get high GPAs.

FedexKinkos shipped the Big Red Tube.

Atlanta was not what I had thought it would be... it never got hotter then 60 degrees the entire time we were there, but we had a good time. We spent a lot of time on a rooftop bar at the Hilton which had an amazing view of the city. One night we went to the nightlife area... and the first club we tried to go to was $60 per person to get in... WOW! Needless to say we did not go in, but found a cool little bar in an old house converted into a club. For 5 bucks we got in and chilled in the living room. Fireplace, Christmas tree, ornaments, and some conversation. Good times.

Well the next two weeks will be a little hectic in Albion. I have to catch up on missed work, and the students are getting ready to leave campus for their break. I can't wait! Until then I will be a busy little bee. ADIOS!
