Finished day 3 of a 4-day travel\/work\/conference marathon that started on Thursday.<\/p>
I’d signed up to volunteer at Connecting for Change in New Bedford. In exchange, I got one day of regular attendance, which I elected to do on Friday, day 2 of the “marathon”. Tomorrow, day 4, is my volunteer day, but the conference will end at 3:30. Last Thursday, the first day of the marathon, was orientation for volunteers, and that took place after work.<\/p>
Today, day 3, I attended a terrific WordCamp in Providence. Learned a lot and had my head turned around from back end to front end development.<\/p>
I went back and forth on whether I had to stamina to handle four days straight. For example, I thought about taking the bus to Providence today, but the fare would have been $50 round trip. We got discounted parking, so even with the cost of gas, the trip didn’t come to nearly that much.<\/p>
I thought about grabbing a hotel room or rooms, but the least expensive I found was over $50.<\/p>
The weather has been great, the calm before the storm, so travel hasn’t been a problem at all.<\/p>
One more to go, then I can concentrate on storm preparation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
