Countdown to eBay Boot Camp Live 2010!!
No dates present
Hello again!
Well, if you remember back to my last blog post, I had gone thrift store shopping, Lynn H (now known as the Duchess of eBay–love it). Â After we were finished, I headed over to the Bank for the Chicagoland sellers meeting.
Before I started speaking, the sellers group presented me with a birthday cake that was made by Lynn H’s niece. It was amazing.

I seriously almost started crying. This group is an awesome bunch of eBayers!
After I spoke, I got a ride to the hotel. The Chicago Hilton is amazing! It was built in the 1900s as the Ambassador and reminded quite a few of us ofThe Shining with its long deserted hallways. What a trip! Literally and figuratively.

Once I checked in and received a complimentary upgrade to a suite, I headed to the nearby Irish restaurant for a nightcap. When I walked into the pub, I ran  into quite a few people from the Chicagoland event (including Melinda Jackson TheRivertheRanchandtheBay.com) and Joel (Producer Main Stage). They are awesome! We had such a blast.
Check out the photo of all of us.
From left to right we have an eBayer, Bev England, Andy Chase (Top Seller Account Manager at eBay and eBay_Andy on Twitter), Me, Joel Arnold (Producer Main Stage), Nick Perry (Concurrent Room Producer), Melinda Jackson and another eBayer. Sorry couldn’t remember everyone’s names!  So that was my first day in Chicago. What a great experience!
