Details to follow but here are some images from the conference. Sadly my flight was cancelled and I’m still in Oregon – I believe the term is ‘distressed passenger’! The conference was AMAZING, I met fantastically inspiring people, rallied a crowd to come to the beaver festival, and inspired three other festivals that I know of! Along the way I made great friends and learned a ton. Ripley will sign off for now but allow me to say that even when my flight was cancelled I ended up stranded alone at the airport with Alberta researcher Glynnis Hood, and we were able to talk beavers, politics and beaver gossip for the better part of an hour!  Pretty exciting!
