Convergence arrival and the board meeting

This morning was far too early leaving from Colorado, but it was worth it.  As soon as I touched down I talked with Russ who was getting ready for the executive meeting.  Took a quick, crazy shuttle to the Flamingo and found my way to the board room.  More later. Bob Carey just debuted the...

Photographer tournament pics

All of us worked our butts off at the state tournaments in Yakima and it was a fun and tiring time indeed.  Here are a few quick hit photos, and screen grabs, of the faces behind the lenses under the dome.  I didn’t think of doing this until it was too late… but I...
