Welcome
I arrived at the Marriott Renaissance Center in Detroit on Tuesday evening and began my conference adventure with registration Wednesday morning. Below, two Opera America staff persons are shown greeting me (Re-enactment: It didn't occur to me to take pictures until a few days later.).
Though sometimes entertaining, the fact that we shared the convention center with middle schoolers participating in "Math Counts" was a bit bothersome. How those children could perform arithmetic on so little sleep I have no idea. I did one learn thing, though, from the young scholars: the pushing all the buttons in the elevator prank has certainly not lost favor with younger hotel guests.
