Start of Travel

Hello again.

I have to admit, I have not been very good at keeping up on this whole blogging thing. I guess I need to try and do better.

Just a quick update. I have started my fall travel....well....kind of. This past week, I covered college fairs at Kokomo (hello all you Wildkats!) as well as Monticello (home of the Indians) and Lafayette (I saw Bronchos, Knights, Mavericks, Raiders, Devils and I probably missed a few..so I am sorry!). It was nice to be out of the office a few days, but boy was the work waiting on me!

The week before, I was fortunate enough to attend a National conference for college admission counselors and high school guidance counselors. It was held in Seattle, Washington. Seattle is such a great city! I was able to catch the famous Pike Place Market where I watched the workers toss fish across the market and sing their little jingles about each type of fish they were throwing around. I was also able to take in the famous Space Needle, which is a must see of anyone traveling to Seattle. Oh....and yes, I did attend a few conference sessions....but just a few!

Next week, I will be covering the Transfer College Fair at Ivy Tech in Lafayette on Tuesday.

My next step, is to try to schedule a few high school visits within my territory. If you have an overwhelming desire to have me at your high school, please let me know. I will do my best to get there!

Until next time.....
