First of all Many thanks to the Activerain staff, IDX - great, Market Leader, Michael - From Zillow and the Main speaker Ben Kinney Internet Marketing Specialist and Keller Williams - Realtor. The Class was well worth the trip , enjoy these pictures of the venue. I promise much more about the class discussions and some great free sites to make your blog more effective  Thanks again Ben  see his a/r blog  www.activrain.com/benkinney.

Seaport Boston Hotel and World Trade Center...was a terrific place to stay and have a conference, Easy on and off the Interstate  and the Harbor view King Suite was As advertised beautiful. Actual shot from room 1235 For booking and facilities info see www.seaportboston.com

 Dinner at Legal Seafood Test Kitchen ...Next door great food and ran into new and old friends,  Kathleen Cooper (Sleepless in Sturbridge Ma), Ben Kinney, and Kerrie from Activerain . Hope you folks flying back to Seattle get some sleep. My wife and I walked back to our hotel to stretch our legs, and look at the Boston Sky line at Sunset.

 This part of the city is very pretty at night. Western Sunset over the high-rises and the harbor close by.

The Amphitheater at the World Trade port Boston is such a pretty venue, the After Party looked down on the Local Ferry Boats scheduled for trips to Cape Cod and the Boston Airport.

Next Post Much more data, and helpful Internet tools from this Great Conference. The scenery was beautiful , but the technology shared was even better than the sights of the Harbor.

What fabulous photos of Boston!  I've stayed at the hotel and the rooms are nice, especially the view.  You need to plan an Active Rain party on that boat of yours, or is it Gerry's? 

I loved meeting you finally!  For those rainers who haven't seen the man "behind the sunglasses" check this out:

How cute is he?

So cool that you got to go to RaniCamp Steve. Glad to hear you had a wonderful time, met lots of your AR buddies, made some new ones along the way, and, hopefully learned lots too.

I really like the scenery around the harbor, it's so much different than we get in the desert. The Test Kitchen sounds like it would be one of favorites places; I love seafood!

Bob, I really feel like it was a family reunion rather than a business meeting...I wish we had gotten there earlier and rounded up more of the Rain Troops the night before. After the event most people headed for their cars and Poof it was over.

Steve,

Great photos! Many of my photos did not come out, the setting must have been off. :(

It was an excellent event. I am still trying to process all of the information, tips and tricks that Ben Kinney shared with us.

It was a pleasure meeting you and Vonni. Next time you take the boat out and head in this direction, let me know. I will make sure they hold a sizable berth for your yacht. LOL
