We live in the South. The Conference is in the South. The weekend forecast calls for low to mid 40s and rain this week.
So why am I worried about the weather?
Well a cursory glance at the weather.com map this morning shows nothing but white emminating out of the Midwest. Hours and hours of delays at Chicago O'Hare airport, while commonplace are basically cancelled today, and Detroit is running slowly as well.
Why does this concern me? Our keynote speaker this year, Thomas Daniel, lives and works in Chicago. He's flying in on Friday. Our National Director, Registrar and Admin are all based out of Madison and will have to fly through or over the whiteout of the Midwest. So does a bunch of the 'stuff' we need to pull off the Conference.
So please, please, please - pray for the weather in the Midwest. I don't think I've ever prayed for snow to go away - but let's do so today!

I remember last year when we flew out of Madison, WI, we got a call while we were waiting for the plane to take off that Madison schools had been cancelled. We made it out just in time. I have faith we'll do it again!
See you tomorrow!
