Grace, Beth and I (colleagues from UMF) are on our way to the Society
for Information Technology and Teacher Education International
Conference in Las Vegas. We're presenting a paper at the conference
and we're staying for most of the conference to attend sessions and
learn new stuff in our field. To get from Farmington to Vegas we had
to drive 2 hours to Portland, catch a flight from Portland to Newark,
NJ, and change planes to catch a flight to Vegas. In the Newark
Airport we had to get from gate 108 to gate 72 which included
changing concourses. Grace hurt her knee a while back while skiing so
she's moving a little slower than usual (still at a faster pace than
me, but slow for her). When we were walking to gate 72, she stopped a
lady driving a cart and asked to confirm that we were headed in the
right direction. The lady confirmed that we were and then said, "Hop
on!" So we did! And we saved about 10 minutes of walking plus got to
ride a cart through the airport (I think I've only done that one
other time in all my travels). How fun is that?! We even had time to
stop at the ladies' room AND get lunch before they started boarding
our flight. Shwew!
