Yes, today I explored the desert. Several of us intrepid video librarian types drove into the Superstition Mountains, and did a little--a very little--hiking. I was very gungho about hiking till some cowpoke couple also hiking pointed out that my sandals were not very practical. "They're actually very comfortable," I blithely replied. "Yes, but they offer no protection against snakes. And scorpions," said the kindly lady cowpoke.
I gingerly tiptoed back to the parking lot. No, I stayed on the trail and took lots of pictures of the gorgeous mesas, buttes, cacti, and other flora and fauna, but I was very, very cautious!!!!
We stopped at Tortilla Flat, a tiny townkin which is basically a tourist trap, but very cute. We had lunch, took some more photos, and headed back to the media market. Just saw the last presentation of the market, on podcasting. To heck with the blog, now I want to podcast!!!!! Note to self: contact Kevo asap for tech assistance.
Now I'm waiting for the conclusion of the conference, the pinnacle of my experience here: the long-awaited raffle!!!! I have been diligent about filling out raffle tickets and leaving them with the vendors, so I fully expect to win something!!!! Stay tuned.
