I have to express to Missouri for having potentially record high temperature today. After some time staying on the beach I can’t say I was looking forward to January weather here at home. Another good thing about being home is Coffee Zone.

Here’s my favorite Barista Man, Taisir Yanis, Coffee Zone. I took some Rocket Fuel with me to the beach so I’ve been in good shape. It just tastes better made here for some reason.

This week Cindy and I head off to Nashville. It’s time for the Cattle Industry Convention. Tomorrow I’ll be conducting a session at the first NCBA Communications Workshop called “Techie Talk” with a focus on smart phone and mobile apps for creating online content. This workshop is for the communications staff at state associations around the country and we’ve got a good group signed up. Then it’s on to the full convention where I’ll be the Beef Board Blogger while Cindy focuses on NCBA activities. So we’ll be seeing you from there where the official Twitter hashtag is #CIC12.
