Are You Ready

May 2, 2012

We will be flying out soon for the big show! I can't wait. I have been preparing for the PES T&D Expo for months. I have been talking with friends working on the conference. Folks designing displays. People dealing with the nuts and bolts of the Expo. And now there is about a week left until the door opens on the floor. Time really does fly, but there is so much left to do.

I hope you have gotten your reservations for airlines, hotels, rental cars, and the ton of other things needed to make this a memorable event. I really need a check list, but what fun is that.
