Next thing we knew, there were Jane and Marsha waiting for her flight. But first, the guy with the mohawk had to get off and we had to watch the Japanese tourists get oriented. Then, this kind gentleman put Jane on her flight.

Our flight was longer and I had a chance to admire the signage in the bathroom and to get instructions that you can see that I followed and other instructions that I also followed. When we landed, Marsha made a call back to the office and I admired the signage.

We were early for our first appointment with Steve Bachman so we went to this Starbuck's (which was to become a theme of the trip as you, gentle reader, will notice) and order the first Iced Tazo'Chai from this menu. The bathroom here had a very instructive sign

Next we went to Portal where this woman asked that I sign this agreement before she would give me this badge. Once signed we went upstairs to see John Little who had dressed for the occasion.

Dinner that night was a gathering of alums I knew. We had Paul Haahr Celeste Fowler (who was excited to be there) Humper Marsha Tom Kessler (who is the ringleader) Mark Rubin and David Fuchs to eat this food. Cynthia came with Naomi and I took a family picture. Then Nat Wyatt arrived.
