I'm calling today "Day 0", as it's the day before OOW and nothing is really planned for Saturday. Exhibitor booths get built, conference goers check in, and OOW begins to really descend upon the city. It's the 1-day buffer before the formal conference starts. I'm grateful for "buffer" days. I don't travel well anymore so … Continue reading OOW16: Day 0 – Something Wicked This Way Comes
