And again, weeks have gone by without an update… but by now I’m sure you know what that means, right? Busy-ness on the home front! Last time I posted from Fairbanks, Alaska hoping to report in with pictures of the Northern Lights. Sadly, I didn’t get to see them. I had found out, just a day or two before I…

My hotel room in Anchorage faced toward the water, but there were tall buildings in the way, so my view was limited to a narrow opening between the buildings. There was a beautiful sunset Monday evening, the day I arrived. After that, the skies were mostly gray and not beautiful. Also, the conventions kept us busy so there wasn’t a…

Today is the 2nd day of the Anchorage conference. Our booth is next to our sister company, BookShark, and the 4 of us have been having a good time, though there hasn’t been much time for sightseeing.

Layover in Minneapolis on our way to Duluth. If you squint you can see the city way off in the distance. We’ll be setting up for the MACHE conference this afternoon.

This past week was our annual training conference at Sonlight. It’s a time when the convention consultants get together to learn about any changes for the new catalog and prepare for the upcoming convention season. It’s something I look forward to every year, but it’s always an intense week. This year was a little different since I now go into…
