October, 2005

The exact date of this trip is a little sketchy in my head. This was one of the trips that also had a number of photos go missing. I'm very sad about that, but I will perservere! Even Triumph!

I went to Indianapolis to do some sales support for the company I was working for at the time. I was basically the technical guru for a tech summit that we were throwing. I really only presented for about an hour, but it was a really great experience.

To make matters worse, there was a Lord of The Rings exhibit at the local museum. It was like a million times smaller than the one I went to in Canada a number of years ago, but there was still some cool stuff there. Due to timing, I only had about 20 minutes to check it out, but that was enough.

Here's the LOTR exhibit I was speaking of above.

An interesting looking building on my way to the exhibit from the hotel

I took this from a shopping mall I found in the middle of the city. Inside, I found a Ben & Jerry's, and also a movie theater where I saw Serenity. I was the ONLY person in the theater. I guess that might help me date this trip. I should look in to that.

A view from inside the hotel. I think this was one of those Embassy Suites deals. It was pretty funny, as there was a sports betting place in the lobby. How midwestern!!
