For personal reasons, I need to return to the West Coast on a full time basis.  I will be available this week and next at my usual place near Dupont Circle Monday-Friday, between 11AM and 5PM.  I look forward to seeing my existing friends, as well as those of you that I haven't met yet.

Washington DC is a wonderful city, and I have seen so many great things here in DC that I would have never seen as just a tourist.  From braving the cold on Inauguration Day, to the cherry blossoms.  Even the roar of helicopters screaming up the Potomac while eating lunch at Tony & Joe's restaurant in Georgetown (my favorite!).

Words cannot describe the wonderful friends that I have met here in DC.  You know who you are, and I will miss you deeply.  I look forward to keeping in contact, and I do plan on visiting Washington DC every 60 days or so.

So, here's my "hats off" and resounding CHEERS to a great city with great people, whether I have met you or not.  I am truly honored to have been in your company for the past year.  All the best!

Xoxoxo, Katie
