Washington DC


Einar's company's convention was in Washington DC this year, so that is where we were from June 11-17.

As usual, we were in a wonderful Marriott Hotel, and had great meals and were able to connect with people Einar knew and people we'd both met previously.

Mostly, though, it was a good time for Einar & I to reconnect and have time together after my Ukraine Trip.

While he was in sessions the first day, I drove up to the Material Resource warehouse in Ephrata, Pennsylvania for 2 reasons. I needed to get my pic's from the Ukraine trip (I didn't have nearly all of them since my disks were blank when I got home) and I really wanted to take the opportunity to reconnect with Rudi and Mary, who were both in Ukraine as well. I also managed to see Lucinda - who I'd met in Mississippi on our MDS trip earlier. So it was a very worthwhile trip.

The rest of the weekend, whenever Einar was in sessions, I was able to work on my pictures and get them sorted.

We had 2 meals supplied each day, but there were wonderful restaurants nearby and we had great Mediteranean food, Thai food, and on Father's Day, we went out for Afghan food. That was a new experience for us, and well worth it.
