Vegas, BABY! NAB, here I come!


I'm pretty excited, because this Sunday I get to go to the National Association of Broadcasters convention and their Technologies for Worship Conference in Sunny Sin City. Now, I love a good techie conference, and this is the biggest one in the world! We're staying at the famous Circus Circus hotel and casino, and I'm actually truly excited about several things.

  1. I get to fly again. Always a plus.
  2. It's the NAB! I've always wanted to go!
  3. I get to, once again, sit under the tutelage of Golden Eagle and Emmy award winning Dick Reizner. I learned a lot of my "tricks" of the trade from him years ago in his "mixed bag of tricks" conference at Diamond studios in Birmingham, AL. It's time for me to glean more!
  4. VEGAS, BABY! I've never been to Las Vegas, but I've always wanted to go.
  5. Tech exhibits. The world's largest. Hands on with the world's most cutting edge, unreleased equipment.
  6. Blackjack. Must. Play. Once.
  7. Buffets.
  8. Slot Machines.
  9. Learning. I love to learn more about my craft. It always gives me a morale boost and inspires me to really stretch myself.
  10. Shows
  11. Last, but certainly not least - travelling with Josh Van Wycke, Jonathan Tompkins, and Jeff Freeman, three men that I truly enjoy being around.
Of course, there are a some negatives as well.
  1. I'll be away from Cailey for almost a week.
  2. I'll be away from Jessica for almost a week.
But I think the positive outweigh the negative on this trip. ;)

I went to Vegas last November....it was a blast. In fact, we're going back in June...YEA!! Your pic has our name -Harris- in it. Have a great time and try to see some of the shows that are right on the street. The fountain show is on the strip and there are other things to enjoy just cruising down the strip.
