From Bakersfield to Beirut
I'll be representing Bakersfield and The Californian at an upcoming conference in Beirut, Lebanon, for publishers in the Middle East who want to learn more about what it takes to run a successful independent media company. This blog will be all about my trip and the conference, which should be an amazing experience!

Baalbeck Ruins
Since I'll be arriving in Beirut a few days before the conference starts, I'm already scouting places to visit. At the top of my list is the Baalbeck Ruins, among the largest and best-preserved Roman ruins in the world.

Wow, that looks amazing. I look forward to hearing what it's like to be there in person. So cool.

How incredible that something that looks so precarious could stand straight for so long. They don't build 'em like they used to!

It would really suck to be the one person who leans up against them and accidently knocks them over... :-)
