Yesterday we wrapped up two filled-to-overflowing days of CyberProfessionals sharing knowledge, food, and lots of talk. From my photos you might think all we did was eat, but really the rest of the time I was so busy listening and taking notes that I hardly got the camera out.
Since we're the CyberPros, of course we focused on all things electronic. As usual, I learned a lot. Kristal Kraft did a presentation (using my AR blog as an example!) that taught us more about tags and what they mean to search engines. Fascinating stuff, and helpful to understand when adding tags to your posts.
Tim Kinzler, a most terrific agent and photographer, gave a presentation on health and weight loss. You might not think of that as a cyber-subject, but if we're not healthy we can't very well do a good job, can we? Tim says it's not how much you exercise, it is what you put in your mouth. So instead of having chocolate at the break, I went and talked to Tim for inspiration. I think a hug can be as good as chocolate, if you like the hugger.
Tim's guidance helped – some – later when we all went to the Melting Pot for dinner. Anyone remember fondue parties from the 1970's? Well the Melting Pot is for you. We had a great time and finished off with the luscious dessert plate, all ready for dipping in chocolate!

I have to give a special thanks to CyberPros "Mom," Linda Davis, who does fantastic job keeping us organized and moving forward. Linda was there at the first meeting in 1995, and is still making sure our meetings are interesting and successful. That's Linda with Kristal Kraft.
And if Linda is Mom, then Les Sulgrove is the CyberPros "Dad." He handles all the computer tech stuff for our meetings, and obviously enjoys a good chocolate-dipped dessert. He also took this picture of one terrific group.
