I had a lot of fun on the work trip Saturday. A good mix of little work, a little play and a little relaxation. I caught up with some old friends and made some new friends. The weather was beautiful and I got my first good look (in the daylight) of Willow Farm. It will make an excellent venue for MAR. I look forward to our next work trip.
Here are a couple of pictures of the main event area.

I liked Tommy's photo but there was something wrong with the content.
This is a little better

John - the Giraffe has been spotted numerouse times in the Northern Virginia area since Saturday. I don't think I should have fed it as it may have followed me home.

It was a funny thing how Jeff and John were watching the water for that bird and not the trees. I guess they know something I do not.

John thought he saw a whale in the James.
