I am at the National Auctioneer's Association's Certified Auctioneer's Institute this week with my son Rob (we call him Rob lite) and we just got here in Bloomington Indiana at the University of Indiana.
The program has been discribed as the Master's Degree for Auctioneers.
The campus and town are beautiful, as we pulled into the area I told Rob lite that I thought I had seen it before in a movie. About 30 years ago I watched a nice move about a bicycle race called Breaking Away and I loved it. It turns out it was filmed here. I'll have to go rent it again.
The buildings are all made form local Limestone and the quarry is right out of town.
This is a little local restaurant, I will have to go see if it is any good!
Our first night we went to Nick's, they have big rooms to fit lots of auctioneers, good food and beer.
We had dinner with Rick and Cindy from San Antonio, Texas we got to share some ideas with them about charity auctions and they told us about their work with auction processes and documentation. Very interesting, we auction types are always re-inventing everything. I have a background as a software engineer, we like process control!
