WAFLT 2015
November 6, 2015 {310/365}
I'm back at WAFLT after a four-year sabbatical. This year's theme is "Mission Possible," but our presentation today almost didn't happen. Our session was originally scheduled for Saturday at 8:00 am, but our names were switched with another session in the program. When we inquired about the error, we were told that our session was bumped. After much confusion were we rescheduled to present at 3:15 today. Despite the confusion and a very similar presentation scheduled just before ours (that mentioned me as inspiration), all went well. If you missed it, here's a link: tinyurl.com/APalternatives

"One cannot endure to waste anything as precious as autumn sunshine" - Nathaniel Hawthorne. This week, the days are regrettably shorter, but filled with blue skies, abundant sunshine, calm winds, and mild temperatures - what a gift to welcome November!
