CO’s loss is DC’s gain. Best wishes for success and good health.
Whatever it is, I hope you have fun.
Congrats! and tip one for each of us…
A Philly brewery produces Ben’s spruce Beer. It is nice, but I like Tommy Jefferson’s tavern ale better.
I HOPE YOU HAVE FUN SPONGING OFF OF MY MONEY!
Just kidding. Congrats, and enjoy!
If it weren’t for the brave and hardy souls of the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture you would be eating…wait a minute – forget that.
I will be working for the USDA APHIS (animal, plant, health, inspection service) doing my very best to move paperwork along. I know my new supervisor is looking forward to me showing up, she already has my first day and week planned with work.
I do hope to return home occasionally. Maybe even stopping by a POLS get together.
I will pop into POLS occasionally, or at least when the Hatch Act won’t get in the way. There is an office in Ft. Collins I will be visiting on rare occasions too.
DC is always my favorite town ….for about a week and a half….
If you get any tips on good restaurants…not priced for the lobbying class….pass them on, if you have time.
It is a lot of fun. There are so many wonderful historic and scenic places to visit. Including a few that showed up after I first visited during DDE’s administration.
There are micro-breweries to enjoy locally along with craft beers from the region. And, George Washington’s still has been recreated. All most as good as Stranahan’s Colorado Whiskey.
There are more restaurants in the POLS wallet range than there were a few years ago. Some are even safe to eat at.
I used to live part-time in Alexandria, during the 80’s and 90’s, so the District is not too foreign a place. The changes during the last decade have been tremendous. When the defense contractors moved their huge offices to the area that changed it from a bureaucratic and tourist destination to a military-DHS, bureaucratic and tourist destination.
It is still possible to go walking along the Potomac, on most weekends, and not be bumped into the river by tourists. I like to take the dogs with me (check out what-me.com).
I lived there in the mid-60s….when the whole world was marching…except in Georgetown.
This sounds like a good time to be in our nation’s capital.
I’ve always enjoyed your take on Colorado politics.
On the other hand, I used to frequent the Mad Hatter when I lived in DC – you’ll find the city quite fun.
but is DC ready for Pam?
In the future, you can always come home to Colorado so we’ll still claim you. Congrats!
so you don’t lose residency.
incriminating in the box. In Chicago, the box usually contains bundles of hundred dollar bills.
But I always enjoy reading what you post.
Good luck in your new endeavor.
You will be missed, Pam. Please don’t forget us.
Like Dwyer said, DC is an awesome place to visit.
Best of luck to you.
Whip all them pansy, pussy footing politicos into shape!
.
Whaddaya think sock puppets are for ?

And for good beer, I’ve been told not to miss the Brickskeller.
Brickskeller closed the end of December (being of pure heart and mind I missed the closing).
It is now the Bier Barron.
We’ll miss you.
Always loved your contributions here.
Now as an old Washington hand, let me give you a good piece of advice I know about that town:
D.C. is always about outward appearances that may not necessarily be true, so if he says he’s ” 39 ” and a ” lobbyist ” on Craigslist he’s probably not.
We’ll be sorry to have you leaving Colorado, but I’m sure DC needs you. 🙂
Take care.
Barracks Row, either the dive bar favored by the Marines or the elegant Belgian Cafe….
Things didn’t work out for me in DC, but that doesn’t mean they won’t for you.
Enjoy! Keep in Touch! (You still have an email for me, correct?)
Let me know when you are here!
And after the disk crash I don’t have your e-mail. Go to my website or facebook page and contact me.
Make sure you find plenty of time to enjoy the District! Don’t let the wonder of living in our nation’s capital wear off. Don’t become too cynical. Most importantly…don’t forget us!
My goal is to get myself to a point where I am ready to move to D.C. in years. I am hoping I will be ready mentally and educationally by then. If you’re still there, you can show me around!!
It was great seeing you at the Arapahoe County Dems reorg last week. I wish you well, my friend!
DC is an amazing place! Have fun 🙂
December 7, 1972, 0500, I landed at Stapleton, courtesy of the US Air Force. When the sun rose the snow and the Front Range looked like it does right now. It was also -20F.
It is fitting that I have this moment before my flight to sit here and look out over the new DIA airport and the Front Range; the view that told me this is home.
The view is perfect and the temperature must be 50F better.
Thank you all.
