 This morning we made it to the convention center with plenty of time to spare. I even ran into a few people I used to work with and chatted with them for a bit. Small world.

The exhibit hall was quite chilly again today. The bathrooms were basically kept at tundra type temperatures. I did not dilly dally in there.

We had some good chats sharing what we can offer and getting information to help support our fellow vet people in their different stages of their career.

I did offer my dogs up for research on a dental product that is being developed by a chemist. I offered free feedback on client perspective of ease of use, palatability and reporting back results seen. We will see how that goes. He was working on a product that incorporates hyaluronic acid into a water additive to help heal things like gingivitis

For dinner my coworker and I went to a tavern. The food was yummy and priced well. It was quite loud. I felt like an old lady complaining about the volume of the music. It did seem excessively loud. Our waitress hustled her butt off. I was impressed with her.

We made it back to the hotel close to 8:00 pm (phew long day). I then logged in to catch up from communications that I needed to deal with throughout the day.

These days are long but fun. I wish I brought Jiminy and his camp chair. I wonder if he would be scared or if he would just sleep through all the people petting him?

I cranked my heat up to 76 just to get warm. My bones were chilly. I miss the wood burning stove.
