(Well actually, in a room nearby, in Chandler Arizona). I'm at SUSO West (StartUp/StartOver condev conference sponsored by the national church's condev office).
I arrived (in 105 degree heat!) late this afternoon, and will be joined by 20+ members of diocal. It should be a great conference (The cast is "A" List, including Charles Fulton (head of national condev and uber-condever), Tex Sample (yes), Kevin Martin et al. More about all this as the week progresses.
Oh yes: why joan crawford? (there really is a room here named after her, and one of the condev workshops will be there) Well, this hotel (the San Marcos) was apparently a winter hideaway for Hollywood royalty when Ms. Crawford reigned (pre-pepsi days).Needless to say, the ever-witty diocal contingent has already made lots of comments about the clotheshangers found here (cf. Mommie Dearest for details).
Question of the day: which diocal rector has, among her accomplishments, a background in synchronized swimming?
