Once I settled into the hotel I decided to just stay put. I didn't leave the hotel until Friday Morning. The food at the Hotel was decent and a few places was delivering to the hotel. Our Instuctor was letting us take our trainers and robotic arms back to the room at night. Took me a while but I could get the arm to pick up the knife. Couldn't get the darn thing to carve though. Anyway got some studying and carving done. Then back to baltimore to fight the Ice storm we got here. Can't get into my shop and it was tricky getting into my driveway at home. After the weather clears in the spring and my motorcycle is back together I will have to head that way again and maybe a few of us could get together and have a carve-in.
