True North

I’m heading on vacation for a few days in Washington DC with my girlfriend. I was invited to be at the Pope’s greeting at the White House on Wednesday so it was a trip I couldn’t refuse. (Big thanks to the peeps who made this happen)

I will be missing the Tax Cut Coalition Rally this Saturday at the Capital, but not by choice. it sounds like it is going to be a great event and YOU WILL BE THERE! You can find more info here.

Anyways, yes the trip. We’re heading out very early Saturday and will be there til late Wednesday night. this is my first trip there, so we’ll be seeing the usual places, not to mention being on the Southlawn of the White House for the Pope greeting. We’ll even be getting a tour of the Capital and even have a few minutes of time with a member of the Minnesota Congressional delegation.

I will be doing what I can to post while out there, but I have orders to leave the crap behind. (inside story) I did just try to get my blog fixed so I could do photos, but it was no luck and I really don’t want to pay a tech person to fix it. I’ll have to figure out what I want to do on that, but I can fall back to the ftp style of uploading them, but it is a HUGE pain to do that for blogging.

Anyways, posting will be what it is for the next few days. Tomorrow is going to be crazy having to get some loose ends tied up at work. I have to pack. And the dogs are going to ‘camp’. We’ve decided we feel better saying the dogs won’t be going to the kennel by calling it camp. I just couldn’t find anyone to watch them for me when I am gone.

Anyways, have a good Tax Cut Rally and next week. I know I will.

(AAA’s Note: I’ll be taking my first commercial airline flight in something like 16+ years. I’m terrified I’ll get strip searched and have some big dude named Ben Dover as my ’security agent’. Wish me luck.)
