Whereas my new lightweight college laptop (which was supposed to arrive by the end of May) is still in limbo, and
whereas I don't want to go schlepping through multiple airports with a not-entirely-reliable laptop hanging heavily from my shoulder, and
whereas my dying camera will only break my heart if it pulls one of those I-refuse-to-save-that-photo tricks while I'm basking in the beauty of some majestic waterfall in Idaho, and
whereas I don't want to spend all my free time at the ASLE conference hunched over a laptop or muttering angrily at a cranky camera, and
whereas the nasty plumbing bill ate up most of my new camera fund,
Be it therefore resolved that I'm traveling with only one suitcase and a tote bag on my trip to Idaho, leaving behind computer, camera, and all associated accessories.
(Except maybe my Kindle. Gotta have something to read. And my Garmin. Gotta find my way around confidently. And my cell phone. And charger. But nothing else.)
So don't be looking for blog posts, or photos, or any type of communication for at least a week.
(Unless I change my mind.)

Eh, you don't need a laptop at an ASLE conference. There are too many great folks to talk to -- and too many fun things to do. For example, you could volunteer to pose for my blog ....
Have a great conference and trip!
