San Diego (aka #APHA 2018)

November 15, 2018

When I started this blog earlier this year, my intent was to focus on capturing moments of awe from behind the lens of my camera or iPhone. Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate to get to travel to across the United States, as well as to other countries. Business travel can be fun (especially when friends are there, too), but work consumes most of the days and evenings, leaving little time to explore the destination.

I recently returned from the 2018 American Public Health Association Annual Meeting and Expo in San Diego. San Diego is beautiful, and is warm and sunny all but about 10 days a year. When I’m there on a business trip, I always wonder why I don’t ever visit when I’m not there for work. This year, two of my friends and colleagues made sure that I had ample opportunities to experience “moments of awe” while we were in San Diego.

Thanks Dawn and Paula for sharing these moments with me. And to Sue, Lenora, Anara, Billie, Linda, Cary and all of the others for the spirited and thoughtful conversations. You nourish my soul!
