Images are shown at a resolution of 640x480, but many are available cropped from the originals or in half of original size by clicking on the links after the captions.

Travel day: after a lab meeting at MHC, a ride to Boston [9 Pictures], a parking zoo at Logan, a temporary closure of the TSA checkpoint, then finally an easy flight to Atlanta and MARTA ride to the conference hotel.

Wednesday, March 12, 2008

First day of the conference, but the pictures are all the views from my room on the 17th floor of the Atlanta Renaissance Downtown Hotel [16 Pictures].

More conference, mostly, but the day's pictures are from a hockey game: Calgary Flames vs. Atlanta Thrashers at Philips Arena [37 Pictures].

Friday, March 14, 2008

No pictures today. The conference wrapped up, then it was back to the airport on MARTA, with time to check in and eat before a close-to-on-time flight back to Boston. I got out of town just a few hours before a tornado struck downtown Atlanta. Back in Boston, it was a bit of a frustrating time trying to get a shuttle to overflow lot 4, but once there, it was a rainy (and a little snowy) but otherwise uneventful ride back to Pittsfield.
