Conference time again! This time we are hitting up the CRE Online Conference in Las Vegas. We are in a newer hotel. South Point, on the south end of the strip – way down - supposed to be the next “new” area for hotels. I was very impressed with check in, the room, the services, etc. They could have installed better air filtration – it was a bit stale and the restaurants were not fabulous. Can’t tell you anything about gambling – didn’t participate. The conference kept us busy from 6am to Midnight every day – they even provided breakfast and lunch so we would network and talk. Great conference! Yes – the presentations were to sell courses BUT the presenters gave lots of useful information during the presentations so we all took golden nuggets home! Yeah!
My favorite part, as usual, is making personal connections with other conference goers….we met several really COOL people that we are still in contact with after a whole month! One even bought two properties from us – YOU GO GIRL! Mind you, these are not pretty looking houses but MAN the numbers are good – they are going to CASH-FLOW for her (and they are in a great neighborhood).
Down side – I got really – I mean REALLY sick on the second day and had to stay in the room (bathroom actually). Sweaty, dizzy, hot, weak, blah for 36 hours and then I was back in action! Jeremy took really good care of me – he brought me water and ginger when he checked in on me every few hours.
Since I was a little off my game, I forgot to take any pictures. Bad Jeanna –There was even a formal dinner and I looked great – but did I take a picture, no. Dad Burges drove out from LA to visit and see the strip the last day. We went EVERYWHERE. I walked them through most all of the hotels to see the sites (he had never been) and did I remember to take a picture – not a single one! AHHH!
We did have a surprise when we got home: the tree that used to stand next to the corner of our house was across our driveway. No problem – get out the saw. Here are pictures:
We had a few other surprises on this trip too:
