I'm Training to Learning :)

I'm taking the TRAIN today to LEARNING 2016!

This is a tradition that I have done most years, since 1989.  I love to take the Amtrak TRAIN to host and curate Learning each year. 

Today, I board the Silver Star Train at 3:00 pm in Washington, DC.  For the next 18 hours, I will love the train down the backyards of America.  With a cute little bedroom and some munchy food to eat, I'll be using the time to finalize my keynote sessions and polish our planning for Learning 2016.

If you live along the way, I would love to at least call you - as my train goes past your region.  And, there a few times when the train stops at your station.  Glad to meet you - if you will bring a few slices of pizza.

Here is the map of the Amtrak Route and if you would like to chat, send me a note to

By the way, my music for the ride includes, "City of New Orleans", dedicated to the historic nature of riding the rails across America.
