TAMPA-FRIDAY, January 4th

We've decided that we like beginning the New Year in warm, sunny Florida! We left Arkansas on Thursday afternoon, with the night time lows being in the teens (unusual even for AR, but none the less, COLD)! We brought the plants that we could, into the house and covered the rest hoping that they would survive the freeze. Our flight left Little Rock a bit after 2 in the afternoon and landed in Houston on time. Our flight out was delayed, so it ended up being nearly midnight before we landed in Tampa. It had been a long day, but we were excited about what the week would bring. We got checked into our hotel (I'll edit and put the link later...I'm running out of internet time....) and crashed for the night. We awakened to this lovely view from our bay view window!


Friday brought registration for DWF (Digital Wedding Forum) convention/seminar and lots of new friends! It did not take long to connect with a number of people. When there are so many in one place that share the same passion (photography), A LOT of energy is generated! Our seminars began with LaCour, Susan Stripling and Tony Hewitt. Each have their own distinct style and perspective which certainly helps to broaden ones perspective. Thank you to each of them for taking the time to invest in the lives of others!



Sunset came and went and the first day of DWF came to a close...well, officially, but not completely...there were more friendships to develop and perspectives to share! Again, the day was long, but VERY rewarding.



There is much more to share and that will come in the next few days! Just a little preview of what is to come...

...when anything can go wrong, it does....to the max!!! And much, much more!!!!
