After blogging an event like the Ag Media Summit there’s always the follow up work. For me this includes archiving my photos. I use Adobe Light Room to import my photos from the camera cards to start with and give them all a common file name and numbering system. Then I place them onto a separate hard drive for future use. At this year’s Summit I shot 550 photos of which I put 264 in the online photo album. I also archive the video files. I didn’t shoot much at AMS this year but there were still a couple of YouTube videos posted. I also archive the audio files which at AMS was about 15 this year. A couple of those were my sessions which I’ve sent to AAEA for use on their website.
Counting this post there are 35 stories posted for the Summit this year. Most of them have a photo included and of course some have audio files or YouTube videos.
So besides archiving I’ve just been looking through all the stuff I picked up at the Summit this year. I think I have 8 new USB memory sticks containing media kit information and that doesn’t count the CD’s or fully printed kits of information. I’m going to be looking through them and have already seen some AgWired story ideas I’ll use in the future.
I made bourbon coffee today which I got at Woodford Reserve Distillery and it was even better than I thought it would be. I bought some other products there but I’m saving them for hunting camp later this year.
My daughters are fighting (not hard) over the iTunes gift card I got. I’m going to try to fulfill all the “can you send me a photo” requests but if I don’t send you yours soon please email remind me. There was a lot going on there and if it didn’t get written down then . . .
The photo is executive chef Gil Logan from Churchill Downs. He prepared the food for the reception we had there on Sunday afternoon. It was really good and this guy was very funny. He’s a huge advocate for the farmer and in his spare time and vacations he visits farms to find new recipes.
Now I think I need a nap.
