91st National IMA Convention--Prelude

About to start my second year of blogging the Institute of Management Accounants annual conference--this year in Baltimore, MD. Drove up during the weekend and made brief visits to Fredricksburg and Chancellorsville Civil War battlefields yesterday. No points for Washington, DC or Baltimore drivers--traffic was NO fun either yesterday or today. Today features the brown bag luncheon; I also believe that last year's star speaker does another presentation on ethics this morning. More on today's festivities later.
