Workshop end, and Snow

The workshop ended a little early--we were scheduled to go until 11:30, but we wrapped up closer to 10. And when the big shades in the hotel meeting room were raised, outside were big white flakes drifting down from the sky. I guess I didn't hear all the weather report on the radio this morning, cause I didn't expect it at all. At the moment the roads are wet, not icy, so hopefully it won't snow much and won't affect my travel home tomorrow. This is Denver, after all--they expect snow and are prepared to deal with it.

The workshop seemed to end with most people feeling good about it. I had some nice complements on my talks, not only content, but the fact that I repeated the questions asked by the audience so everyone could hear them, etc. I'm just relieved that it all came off with no major hitches.

Oh, one incident that could have affected the workshop occurred just after it ended--a fire alarm went off on the 9th floor of the hotel, so they stopped the elevators, blocked the stairs from people going up, and checked it out. Turned out to be a false alarm on the 9th floor. And I don't think anyone who needed to get their bags and leave for the airport was prevented from getting to their room on time.
