I am playing a bit of catch-up with posting photos. The 'Recent Photos' on the left include the few I took during my D.C. conference, the West Michigan Whitecaps baseball game we went to with our friends Becky and Abby last Saturday, and a couple other stragglers from around the house.

Did I mention they're all taken on our new camera? I fell in love with my sister's Canon PowerShot SD1000 when she was visiting last month, and I've been wanting a new point-and-shoot. This will be a great alternative for times when we just don't feel like carrying the Nikon DSLR and associated gear around with us.

Anyway, okay. I feel a little more caught-up now.

Have a great weekend!

I made it back safely from my conference in D.C. Wow, what a trip! I am completely exhausted. It was go, go, go the entire time, and I slept 4-5 hours each night, so I became progressively more drained as the days went by. But, I learned a lot, networked a lot, got to know my co-workers on a more personal level, and had a lot of fun. I wish I would've had some more time to sight-see while I was there, but this just means we'll have a perfect excuse to go visit Becky and Abby after they move.
