Nothing Beats Running in the Fall

The weather in DC has not disappointed this fall. Generally, the mornings have been hovering around 50, with the afternoons elevating to mid-60s. I could run all day!


Kudos to the National Park Services; the expiration on the liquid soap in the bathroom cracks me up. The bathroom near the Washington Monument is kept extremely clean; I really do appreciate that (and the fresh soap). Thank you!

Spring Meetings to End Poverty

In case you weren't aware, the World Bank/IMF Spring Meetings are April 11-13, 2014. If you plan to run/walk/park around Foggy Bottom/Pennsylvania Ave/18th/19th during this time, you will probably be a tad inconvenienced.There will be parking restrictions, sidewalk and road closures, and detours. It really isn't that exciting any more, since no one bothers to protest.

This "End Poverty" symbol is plastered everywhere on sidewalks, as well as inside elevator doors--in case staff forget our primary goal.
