christine howlett: Fun Time at OAR Convention in Columbus, Ohio! - 04/28/08 02:56 PM
I'm here at the Hilton Inn in Columbus, enjoying all that the OAR 2008 Spring Convention has to offer.  Today, I attended several roundtable discussions led by experts on each subject, learned more about "green" construction at the Professional Development Forum, was brought up to date on many new real estate technologies and websites at the Business Technologies Forum, had a "lunch box" lunch at the Economic Issues and Trends Forum, and finished the day at the Realtor Idol Competition.
I've learned so much today, my head is spinning.  It's been a day of inspiration, networking and fun!  Don't you wish you were here?
