Well we're 23 days into the new year and things are progressing nicely. I have put some plans into motion and am moving towards some of those goals that I mentioned in my last post. That is, with the exception of making a weekly blog post. LOL

But that's OK. I am about to make up for that over the next few days. I am sitting in the West Palm Beach airport about to get on a plane for Atlanta and then on to Las Vegas. I am going to Alex Jeffreys second workshop and looking forward to meeting his new group of students.

Opps, looks like I am going to have to finish this in Atlanta, the plane is boarding.

Well, I didn't get to finish in Atlanta. We (my wife and I) got off the plane and by the time we got to the gate, the plane was boarding. Unfortunately, our bags didn't make the flight on time. So when we arrived in Las Vegas we had to wait until the next flight from Atlanta to get there and hour late.

(You'll have that sometimes. )

Any way, everything went OK after that. We checked in at the Mirage and met up with a bunch of my fellow students who got here early for Mike Filsaime's bash that started Friday. Gary Simpson, Garry Parkes, Dean Holland, Dan Briffa, David Walker, Marcus Passey, and Paul Wilson were among my fellow students sitting at the bar well on there way…

My wife and I checked in then had a few but didn't do much else. We had been up since 3am EST and with the 3 hour time change were feeling a little tired. We did get up for a bit and prowled the casino for a couple hours but turned in early.

I'm finishing this post in my hotel room as we get ready to go have some breakfast. Stay tuned for some more "Vegas updates" and some videos. Today we are going to see the sites and will probably swing by the MGM grand for Mike Filsaime's networking party at 6pm.

Some of the Alex Jeffreys gang is going to rent "exotic" cars and cruise the strip. I think I'll pass on that and spend the time with my wife. The workshop starts tomorrow. They'll be plenty of time to network with my felllow students.

I am tempted to go with a few of the guys who are going to shoot machine guns and assault rifles. We'll see what the wife thinks about that. Any way, it's all about having fun. My wife is from South America and a place like Vegas makes a big impression. I think I'll be taking lots of pics and videos today.

Check back for another update tomorrow.
