Moving Day, Training and Turkeys! Oh My!

A few days before the Thanksgiving holiday, Sara and I decided to move our office down the hall. We had been planning on doing this since sometime in September, but we had some difficulty finding the time to actually make the move.

The new office is a lot nicer than the old one.  We've moved the conference room to the other end of the hall, so it now occupies our old office.

Last week, most of us were out of the office all week for Thanksgiving, either visiting family in the area or, in my case, driving across Pennsylvania in a freezing rain storm to visit family in Ohio.  Oh, the holidays.  It was a good time, but we had a little mishap when frying our turkey.

This is what happens when the oil is a tad too hot.  Fortunately, the whole thing tasted fine.

Only 2 more weeks until I do it all over again for the winter break.

This week I've spent preparing some things for the AIMS conference being held in early January.  If you're not familiar with AIMS, it is an organization of industry professionals that are focused on the safety of the industry as a whole.  This includes everything from major theme parks to travelling carnivals to go-kart tracks and FECs.  This will be my second year as an instructor for AIMS, and this year Sara is joining our faculty ranks, so congratulations to her!  You can check out their website at http://www.aimsintl.org.  

Finally, invitations for the seasonal holiday party being held in January have been mailed out, so keep an eye on your mailbox!  

Stay warm.
