| San Diego! |
So after a nice, and mostly relaxing family vacation (just being honest... family vacays are NOT 100% relaxing, sorry Mom) I had a couple of days to prepare for my week long trip to San Diego for my student assistantship for the Esri User Conference. For those unfamiliar, Esri is a company that makes software and maps, think of the awesomeness that is google maps than multiple it by 50 and that would be equivalent to the capabilities of esri maps. So, basically their software allows user to make really cool maps and preform lots of spatial analyses, which is incredibly useful in so many fields (can you tell I've been drinking the kool-aid?).
It was a long, but fun week filled with multiple conference tasks, but also filled with great people, the San Diego Zoo, meeting lots of people in the field I will be looking for a job in next year, and also good mexican food and margaritas (which are hard to come by in Corvallis!). Here are some pics from the conference, enjoy!
