Capitol Hill Fever
I have a newfound respect for those who can stand living and breathing Capitol Hill. After our second day of lobbying politicians I was drained; by day five I was too exhausted to argue when the John McCain aid we were meeting with started telling us that natural gas was a great solution to climate [...]
And Now for the Main Event
November 20, 2010 Feels like the start of a vacation…writing to my friends from a Starbucks in Fairfax VA, heading over to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial to film a message to our President about our journey and getting on a 24 hour train ride to a never visited part of the country and [...]
