I visited Boston many years ago, when I was talking with the Harvard track coach and checking out their
 facilities. Harvard is a beautiful institution and one of America's treasures. This time around I was attending
 and presenting at the aejmc convention and it was a wonderful experience!

One of the things that I always seem to do before a conference presentation is make sure that I
have all of my materials together for the trip (powerpoint, notes, computer, etc.) - but, I always go
shopping and get my hair cut to look fabulous. :) Here is a picture I took after I went to R&Co
at Turkey Creek - just fab! :)

Here is the view of Boston from my hotel room
 at the Sheraton. I arrived in Boston on Tuesday
 and I had to sprint from my connecting flight
 from Charlotte to Boston. I believe that my
kickboxing and cycling classes all paid off! :)
 
AEJMC Registration
   

Each participant got a bag with the AEJMC logo
along with other materials, including our program.
 		  
   

Attending the Social media best practices in PR
 presentation - absolutely fabulous!!! It was awesome
to hear the experts and leaders in marketing,
advertising, and PR discuss social media and what
we need to do as professors and practitioners.
 
I enjoyed this talk immensely!
   

Another view of Boston - what an amazing view!

PR Poster Session at AEJMC - a lot of my friends

 this session and did a great job!

Of course I had to include at least one foodie
picture - Boston Clam Chowder! Absolutely yummy! :)
 
We had a fabulous luncheon sponsored by
Edelman - it was really interesting!

If you left the convention early, you really missed
 something!    thank you!   :)
