Icing on the Cake!
I must admit I was pretty exhausted by Sunday, and was ready to get home to my own bed, . There is a girl that now lives in Juneau who had gone to our school last year. When she heard I was coming to Juneau she was excited for us to meet up. I ended up joining her mother and her for late breakfast. Here’s Sierra and her mom.
My flight left early afternoon, and Erin had said she would meet me at the Anchorage airport to hang out until my plane flew. It didn’t look good. The winds have been raging in Valdez for days. In fact, Bill ended up driving me the 300 miles in to catch my connection to Juneau Wednesday because the wind was so fierce. (the plane actually did end up flying that evening, but you never know…)
It turned out the plane did not fly. Bill had a suite at the Captain Cook and Erin and Bill offered to let me stay the night with them. I took them to The Brew House after the opening key note at the ASTE Conference. Poor Bill, he had a terrible hacking cough and was burning up.
Great seeing them though!
I made Bill show off his “ASTE” presentor badge.
