Heading to Reno on 4/2 to catch the conference. We are staying an extra day to take the State specific.
Anyone who wants to meet let me know, especially those interested in working in Rexburg, Idaho.

Its been a really good program. Saw some friends, ate well and picked up very good info. I also scored a clean copy of advanced descriptions (with dust jacket) and an hp82240b with the 41 ir module at the auction.
Good luck, Tom

Nice haul. I staked a lot of stuff from print outs from that printer. Still have it somewhere. I'm just taking my kid to a gymnastics meet. Any good restaurant recommendations? Find anybody for your Rexburg office?

The printer is cool but the advanced descriptions is my find of the year. No hits on the job yet. We put out some flyers and a few disappeared so we shall see.
We took all meals at the hotel. There is a variety here for sure. They have one steakhouse with a very good filet (roxys) and another (Sterlings) where the 5 dollars an ounce price is more than justified. It is truly the only 11 ounce filet ive ever had where every bite is perfection. It resembles a pan seared roast and was certainly pushing 15 or 16 ounces. If you are on a budget Cafe Central is roughly equivalent to Dennys. These are all in the Silver legacy/El Dorado casino.

That "Advanced Descriptions", is that the Cuomo book? Thanks for the food recommendations, we'll be at the convention center. I previously worked for Jorgensen Engineering at their Driggs, ID office.

Yes it's the Cuomo book. Been looking for a while. Prices are off the charts when they come up...
Enjoy Nevada.

I have mine signed by Cuomo and Pallamary. Wonder what that's worth? Probably about $2008.00
