On the Road Again

I'm in Greensboro, NC tonight at a regional conference. I drove up yesterday and the meetings began today. In a room full of almost 500 people, it amazes me how many of them I know or at least have met. It's a great group because they really care about each other, their students and helping everyone be their best. I feel fortunate to belong to the group.

After the keynote speaker, they put the Super Bowl on a couple of enormous screens and served burgers, hot dogs, wings and more. It has to big the biggest Super Bowl party I've ever attended. I made it to halftime before I headed back to my room. 

I was watching the end of the game when I realized that I hadn't written my blog today.  (My days get so mixed up when I have to travel on the weekend and begin meetings on Sunday.) I thought about today, the meetings and the colleagues I call friends. And for the next few days, we will be actively applying this verse - by talking, sharing, and learning how to do our jobs better.

Proverbs 24:5-6 A wise man is strong, Yes, a man of knowledge increases strength; For by wise counsel you will wage your own war, And in a multitude of counselors there is safety.
