I just got back from a business trip to central Georgia, just south of Macon. The conference I attended was the Warner-Robins Requirements Symposium, an event designed to encourage businesses to learn about the US Air Force's upcoming business opportunities and to then submit proposals or quotes in response to published requirements. The event was much better than it was last year. The various categorical sessions I attended contained usable information, such as what the government is planning to do, what kind of contracts, what kind of work, in the near and not so near term. My business-related travel seemed to ramp up a bit in the fall after a nice lull in the summer. I think I have one more trip this year, a week in northeastern Michigan, helping to prove a device to measure thrust works reliably and accurately.
But this next week I have three days of vacation and a couple days of holiday to enjoy. So my lovely wife and I will get at a task we have purposely left undone since moving to Texas, which is to go through some boxes of holiday-related stuff we have been taking with us through several moves. It will be interesting to uncover things we haven't seen for years, and recall the memories associated with holidays past. Some of it, I'm sure, will be worse for wear, but I'm looking forward to the few gems that will be proudly displayed once again.
I think we may also make a day trip or two, and visit some friends who live a few hours away. I'll post again next week, and let you know how it went.
