Holy smokes where does she work? My wife is an ICU nurse and she said she makes more than their travelers but if she made that kind of money I’d retire lol!


Right now she works a Radi Children's Hospital in San Diego. A lot of her income is from the per diem. Also, since she is a traveler, she always works the holidays and weekends so she gets time and a half or double time pay. Her husband is a Navy Commander, so where ever he gets an assignment, she gets in a hospital there as a traveling nurse.

Hey hey! I'm down here in San Diego. My daughter was born at Mary Birch and as a preemie spent a month at Rady Children's Hospital. I always donate to them annually since I appreciate them, was just there a few months ago for chest x-rays for her since she was sick for a bit.

Small world. I think this is her forth time working at Rady. She works the operation room and really likes the work. In a Children hospital operating room you see everything. Even gun shot wounds and brain surgery. She has been in adult patient hospitals but didn’t like it. At the main hospital in La Jolla, she said 90% of what you see is just boobs and butt surgeries. Gets boring.

Lol, makes sense about La Jolla. Hope you get a chance to visit, San Diego is great.

I just know that if I go, I'm going to end up with something. I've never transport corals through TSA before, so I don't know how that will go even though it's within the US.

For all the west coasters we are looking into going to rap Cali.

is anybody going? should we go?
Awesome! I plan on going, I thought it was great last year. Honestly it looked bigger than the New York based on your Instagram and social media. The venue seems bigger in So Cal and since there are a lot of local distributors in the LA area I think it might have a bigger footprint.

I haven't either, but I did look into it and supposedly it is straight forward. Since I do business trips to Florida I was looking into it in case I had time to hit up a shop over there.

Than actually just did a video on vendors doing shows and what is required and showed a clip of a carry on for corals. I think you could just use something like this and just carry it on. The problem you would have is that you'd need to end your trip and fly back the day after the show so you could get it in your tank as soon as possible.

Another option, though pricy, is overnighting the corals home from the fedex terminal at the airport.

I was thinking of the portable frag container. My problem is I have taste for BIG colonies. If I go, I bring one of those collapsible mini cooler. Trying to convince hubby is the hard part. LOL

Just reiterate that the trip is all about family.
