Glad you enjoyed it. Pix looked great.
I'm headed to Pensacola this weekend and Austin next month. No Albany for me, I'll be in the UK 🙁

July 20 (one week from tomorrow), my hometown is hosting SQL Saturday #855 in Albany!
Upstate New York is a great place to visit in the summer!
Who's coming?

I've been accepted to speak at Providence, RI this year. I'm presenting "Black Arts" Index Maintenance parts 1 & 2.
https://www.sqlsaturday.com/892/Sessions/Schedule.aspx
As a bit of a side bar, it'll be interesting to see how their schedule actually works out. They're sessions are 55 minutes long and they only have 5 minutes between sessions. Not much time between to visit the sponsor tables and it'll be interesting to find out how well they like that!
It also doesn't provide much time for people with handicaps to make it to the next session.
I'm also a bit amazed at how little there is offered in the areas of T-SQL programming and related performance improvement, especially for beginners. There's also virtually nothing having to do with creating a "Restore Plan" or other DBA basics. Pittsburgh has a whole track for "So you wanna be a DBA" and it's been extremely popular and well attended over the years.
My understanding as to why they did this was to increase the number of sessions available for a limited number of rooms and still be able to get done by 4:30. My personal feeling is that it's not going to go as well as they may think, especially with what sponsors may think.

I'm presenting at Providence, too! I'll see you there, Jeff! Looking forward to seeing you again!
This'll be my third time speaking at Providence, and they usually do a pretty good job!

I've also presented there before and they did do a great job... except the ones in the past always had 15 minutes between sessions. This is the first time the interludes have only been 5 minutes.

Who's going to be in Providence this weekend? (Jeff Moden: besides you, that is; I already know you'll be there!)

I was going to actually take a few days and hit Providence, and then Cape Cod or Westerly. But, there's Cub Scout camping this weekend, and a birthday party on Sunday. Grrrr.

Asking mainly for my own planning purposes: any groups, preferably in the NE US (hey, easy driving distance for me! 🙂 ) planning on doing SQL Saturdays in 2024?

Hey, Ray, I try to post these on the SQL Saturday site at: https://sqlsaturday.com/#reserved
So far, I have no confirmed dates, but I do have NYC looking at May as is Richmond. No work on the OH ones. I think the rest I know of are out west or fall. I think Boston and Toronto will be Oct again. Not sure Philly will do one, or Pitt.

Yeah, I check the SQLSaturday page pretty regularly. I was just wondering if anything was in the works that hasn't yet been posted!
