So for those of you who attended SQL Saturday Dallas this past weekend, here’s my Top Ten(ish) list from the event:
- Getting lost in the construction zone on Spring Valley on the way
 - A thousand Quest splat balls
 - Competing with SQL Saturday Portland and Indy Tech Fest on the same day – but knowing that ours was the biggest, because everything is bigger in Texas.
 - Monitoring the Twitter feed to keep tabs on everyone else.
 - Lunch outside in the courtyard (ah, the Texas summer sun…)
 - The elevator in which time comes to a standstill when moving 12 feet up.
 - Ice cream (thought the long line… not so much Top Ten)
 - Ordering a round of Buttfaces at Humperdink’s at the after party
 - Live taping of MidnightDBA episode
 - Crossing Centennial street without becoming a hood ornament
 - Joe Celko presenting
 - Joe Celko drinking
 - Knowing we’ll do it all again next year!
