Travel Schedule: Jetting off to DC

By Howard B. Owens

Billie will handle the bulk of the site update duties over the next two days.

I'll be in Washington, D.C.. I'll be participating in a meeting on the future of journalism, where I've been invited to discuss The Batavian. The group hosting the discussion is preparing a White Paper on the topic. The study group is made up of academics and government officials.

I'll be online as often as possible (multitasking as always, except when I'm on a plane or it's my turn to speak).

Howard, enjoy D.C. it is a great city, The Smithsonian Museums alone are worth the trip. I lived near D.C. when I was in the service, and my 2 oldest were babies. We would go there (Smithsonian) on Saturdays and Sundays because it was free (and so was parking) pack lunch and just wander until tired. Good memories. I participated as a honor guard to the Navy Memorial dedication on PA Ave. There is now a small museum near the monument, that is a good visit also. The Old Post Office and Union Station are good too. It is all within walking distance of the Capitol. Hope the weather co-operates.
