New York

Greetings from New York... Manhattan, specifically. I am here courtesy my work, to man a booth at a packaging conference. Tomorrow I get to build the booth. The conference actually runs Tue-Thu this week.

I left SMF (Sacramento International Airport) at 11:59 PM last night. Yep, one minute before midnight. Touched down at JFK at 08:05 AM this morning (3 hour time difference, remember). Flight was pretty bumpy, but that isn't too suprising due to the time of year AND the wonderful low system that touched off a major series of thunderstorms in the Sacramento area on Wed night.At one point, there were over 1500 lightning strikes in Sacramento County IN ONE HOUR... that's a lot of lightning!

I don't sleep on planes, generally speaking, and this flight was no exception. I've been up since 3:30 AM yesterday (Sat), and need a few hours of sleep before I will be ready to be a tourist for a while today. I've been told that they will have my room in the next 1/2 hour or so. This lady is tired...

I will post more later. Remember to check out my Facebook and Twitter profiles also:
