It was wort the early morning drive to Seminole Community College from Melbourne.  The directions provided on the flyer made it slightly challenging to find but all went well.  The key note from Carl Franklin was a humorous retrospective on his career and the progression of Microsoft Technologies from earlier days.  However due to technical difficulties with his guitar, we were not treated to a live performance (nor was there a live performance from old man Paul later that evening either).

I attended several good talks.  My favorites:

• Wes Dumey - Great primer on EDW and SSIS.  Looking forward to spending some time with SSIS, this was a good start.
• Richard Campbell - SQL Tips presentation.  I understand this is one of his regular presentations and I understand why.  Lot's of practical advice and an intro to some of SQL 2005's new features.  Very Technical and very humorous... this is one session that went by in a flash and left me wanting another hour. 
• Miguel Castro - Great Great presentation on extensibility patterns.  Lots of practical information with backing code samples.  I have never seen Miguel in person and was not disappointed.  Top notch speaker.

Overall, it was a great way to spend a Saturday.  Got to catchup with some developer friends I have not seen in a while.  I also got to make some new friends in the 'There's no more pizza, just wait for the next delivery' forced networking session with my starving co-attendees.  Lot's of thanks to ONetUg for a job well done!
