Back to Our Room

Tony and I in our room before leaving to our meetings

We are now back in our room for the night.  The tour to the can making plant wasn't as cool as I thought it was going to be.  They weren't processing when we were there, so we didn't get to see the cans being made.  We did get to see the lids being made and the tops of beer cans being made, so that was pretty cool.  It was loud and smelly.  It was also like 40 minutes away from the corporate office and our bus driver drove so slow.  He didn't take the freeway and all the stop and go from the lights and traffic really made me sick.  I don't like riding in buses, they always make me sick.
The second place we visited was more like the labs where they tested products.  So they had a tasting lab, chem lab, product testing lab, etc.  It was sort of interesting, but more boring then I thought it would be.  After the tours we went back to corporate and had "cocktails" and dinner.  So really we had canned water and dinner.  Tony really liked the dinner, but I wasn't such a fan.
After dinner we came back to the hotel and then skyped with the kids and Tony's parents.  We did this last night too and it is a lot of fun.  It is fun to see the kids and they were silly on the computer.  Megan did great seeing us.  We thought she might cry because she would want us, but she just waved and was perfectly happy.  She is so smart that she understood that we were just on the computer and not there.
After we chatted for about a half an hour we decided to go and get some ice cream.  We ended up at the mall and had an ice cream cone.  We walked around the mall and found a couple items that we bought.  We decided to go home so that I could start packing.  Now I am pretty much all packed and getting ready for bed.
Tomorrow we have more conference until about 11:00 or noon.  We have to have the car back to the car rental place at 3:30 and we fly out at 5:35.  So we will have a couple hours to tour around town before we have to get back.  We might go around Boulder and check that out.  It has been nice to be away, but it will be nice to get home again.
