Washington, D. C. Day One and Two

American Blue picked me up and then Terry and we got to the airport in plenty of time to go through security and walk the mile to Terminal 2 to our gate!

We checked into our room at the Churchill Hotel.  Poorly designed room with a "couch" that had no light over it and is ugly and uncomfortable as sin.

Took a cab over to the Marriott to register and get a quick bite to eat before taking a cab over to the Hart Senate Building to meet with Senators Duckworth and Durbin.  Quick meeting with Illinois Delegation.

Cab with NSBAR folks to Hilton and crossed the street to our hotel.  Where we rested and then met Marty for dinner.

Fell into bed and got ready for an early morning meeting for Marilyn.

Day Two - May 15, 2019

Marilyn headed out to cab over to the Marriott for a 7:30 a.m. meeting.  Grabbed a cup of coffee over there.  Terry had a nice breakfast at the hotel!

After the meeting, I sat in the lobby talking and then went to the Omni to meet the NSBAR group for a cab ride over to Bullfeathers for lunch.  Terry met us there.

We then walked over to Jan Schakowsky's office and met with Jan, Robert Marcus and Katie Durkin.

We took a cab back to our hotel and rested before meeting with Brian and Rori.

Brian and Rori met us at our hotel and we walked over to a great Italian Restaurant - Sette Osteria, about 4 blocks from the hotel.  We had drinks, dinner and dessert.  Glad we walked because we ingested a lot of calories.

They came back and visited with us at the hotel before leaving to pick up a friend's car for the weekend.  They will be dog sitting for a friend who just lost her father.
