For the first time in my professional career, which started in 2003, I'm not at the mercy of an airline to attend an NABJ convention. I can drive. I can take a bus. I can take a train. I can't tell you how excited I am about that.
Philadelphia, the home of the 2011 NABJ convention, is only an hour's drive from me and I'm already planning to spend an entire week in Philadelphia. I hope others are considering that too.
Then the next year, the 2012 UNITY convention will be in Las Vegas, which I'm always excited about going to Las Vegas, and that will be going on during the 2012 Summer Olympics, which I will also attend. So, the next two summers will be filled with some very memorable events.
