6--7-8 Conference

JoAnn Arnold

Oh my gosh! What an incredible, educational, fun experience we had yesterday at the Cedar Fort conference. I don't know if I've ever received more information about what I'm supposed to be doing, am doing and hope to do in the near future,(as soon as my brother gets my website set up).

The only thing I regret is that we didn't give Doug a standing ovation for all the work he did to make everything go so smoothly and so informatively wonderful.

Doug, I am, at this moment, giving you a standing ovation from the desk on which my computer sits. I didn't get to talk to you yesterday, to thank you, because you were one busy man. Today, although it's from a distance, I thank you for all you did to make the conference perfect.

Hey, just one minute - There couldn't have been a conference without the OK from Lyle Mortimer. (Another standing ovation). He stayed in the back ground and let Doug do his thing.

Another thought. Everyone who helped Doug - all the people who work for Cedar Fort, took their Saturday and made it a special day for all who attended the conference. (Another Standing ovation)

Wait! I haven't finished. With my ten minutes sitting down with Jeffrey Marsh, I was enlightened and given answers to questions that I had, but had never voiced. I thank him for his kindness. (another standing ovation)

Can I say enough about the day. Probably not. But I do know that when I came away from the conference, I felt like I had just eaten my favorite desert.

Sounds like a lot of people put a lot of work into it. I wish I could have been there.

I'm sad I missed such a great conference. Sounds like it was amazing. Maybe next year :)

I echo JoAnn's comments. It was a super day. Thanks to Doug and everyone else who helped put it all together.
