Amazing Engagement Race
The nice thing about media association events is there are lots of people with cameras. The unfortunate thing about media association events is there are lots of people with cameras. Just kidding, these are some great pictures from my good friend Chris King. These were taken yesterday during the “Amazing Engagement Race”.
John Spence Fall Conference Keynote
CMMA’s fall conference keynote presentation was from John Spence. At the age of just 26, John was named CEO of an international Rockefeller foundation, overseeing projects in 20 countries and reporting directly to the Chairman of the Board, Winthrop P. Rockefeller III. Two years later John was nominated as one of the top CEOs under the age of 40 in Florida and Inc. Magazine’s “Zinc Online” recognized him as one of America’s up and coming young business leaders.
Clearwater Dolphin
I unfortunately didn’t take this picture and it looks too good to be real. It was taken by Cynthia Hotvedt yesterday during the boat ride.
Pirate Cruise & Fireworks
Hulk Hogan’s Clearwater, FL House
When I was little I used to love the WWF and I mentioned to Christina before I left that I wanted to see Hulk Hogan’s house and on the boat ride I got the chance. I’m also a reality TV junkie so I also watched a lot of Hogan Knows Best which was filmed at this house before the family moved to Miami to support their kid’s careers and before Linda and Terry (Hulk) divorced. I had to zoom way in with my camera lense because the boat was pretty far out but it is very nice.
Sea Screamer Powerboat Ride
Saw some dolphins in the wake of the boat but only got a portion of them each time they popped out of the water.
Clearwater This Morning
Got some coffee, visited Publix, walked along the beach for a while and swam in the ocean. Great day so far.
Beautiful Sunset
I got into the hotel just in time for a phenomenal sunset. This isn’t something you see every day, at least where I’m from.
Clearwater, FL Panorama
Made it to Clearwater, FL today for a conference and some fun over the next few days. This is the view from my hotel room and yes I love Florida so far. I’ve been to Florida a few times prior to this but I haven’t been able to experience it like I will these next few days. Hoping to get in the ocean tomorrow for a swim before the events start. Yes, I know I am very blessed and I will share everything I learn so everyone who wasn’t able to attend (and who I wish could be here) can also benefit.
