California Day #1

Here's the recap of yesterday. After flying through Atlanta and waiting 45 minutes to take off there - we arrived in San Diego only about 15 minutes late. We were driven to the hotel. Look it online- grandpacificpalisades.com It's a resort and it's huge and very nice. They have these big fields out front that are usually covered in flowers. All dirt right now. We have a balcony with a view of the ocean. It's perfect Southern California weather. Sunny and low 70's

I walked up the street to see where I'd be spending most of my time - the NAMM headquarters. What a nice building with a view of the ocean. Wonder what that real estate costs?

Last night, we met up with my dad's friends and they took out east inland to see some of the Indian reservations where they have all the casinos. It's a long winding road (very similar to roads back in PA) that leads to these huge casinos. We went to Harrah's and pigged out at the buffet. WE gamlbed a bit. I didn't do any gambling. I don't understand and of that. I couldn't figure out the machines.

IT was a LONG day yesterday. I'm up now - It's 8:35 here. I'm heading over the the NAMM offices in a few for some meetings this morning. Then I should have the afternoon free and then NAMM is taking the whole committee to dinner tonight. Our big task starts tomorrow with a full day of meetings on ways to help independant music dealers. Should be interesting.
