0:00.0	What's up, everyone? Welcome back to Midweek Modern Craftsman. I cannot believe that it's already March. I don't know how the hell that happened. But last week, my wife and I went to Las Vegas for the International Builders Show. I'm sure I saw a handful of you guys and girls there. And while I am not a huge fan of Vegas, the trip was really a bit of a
0:24.0	game changer for me. It switched my perspective. So for the first time in probably over a decade,
0:32.1	Rachel was able to join me on this trip and really see firsthand the impact of this community,
0:39.0	the connections that I have, the relationships, the support. And having her there really was
0:45.5	an eye-opening experience not only for her, but for me, because it really reinforced the
0:51.7	biggest takeaway from these events,
0:57.4	that it's not just about the products or the booths.
0:59.7	At the end of the day, it's really about the people.
1:05.8	So stick around as I dive into what made this year's IBS so special, the power of networking, and why these events are more than just industry showcases.
1:17.7	So yeah, now that I am readjusting to East Coast time, that's one of the biggest
1:22.2	struggles I have with going out west, which if you would have had me bet money that Las Vegas was mountain time or
1:29.4	West Coast time, I don't know why I'd say mountain time, but the three-hour time change is tough.
1:35.3	Not as much waking up in the morning because you go out there and you know, you're gaining three
1:40.1	hours, so it's super early. But you get out there, you're on West Coast time. You're getting
1:45.0	done the show at 5, 6, 7 o'clock at night, which is really 8, 9, 10 o'clock at night, and then
1:51.1	you're supposed to go out and have some dinners and network. So you get home at 10, 11 o'clock,
1:56.6	midnight, West Coast time, and it's, you know, 1, two, three in the morning, which I'm not used to
2:01.8	doing and then your internal body clock is waking you up at the same time. So it's a tough
2:06.2	transition for time. And if you get adjusted whatsoever by the time you get back, it's also
2:14.4	difficult. So now that I'm I'm readjusted a little bit, I'm still having trouble getting out of bed and
2:20.5	getting back to it.
2:21.5	I also, every time I travel, I get sick.
