I'll be doing my best to channel my inner sponge and take in as much as I can and meet awesome digital friends from across the country. I'm planning on some daily recaps to share what I've learned with the world, but also just to help me digest everything that I've got scheduled to be crammed into my brain. <br><br>I love the "triangle of awesome" by the way. <br><br>Hopefully I'll run into you again down there! Even better if it happens over some BBQ burritos and beer. Great post Mike.

I love the “triangle of awesome” by the way.

Hopefully I'll run into you again down there! Even better if it happens over some BBQ burritos and beer.
