So I leave for Washington in a few hours, and should be packing right now, but I just got a tentative schedule for our activities from the Council, and I figured you guys would like to know what I'll be doing. There is a lot of visits to officials and such going on, which is really cool, and a lot of visits to universities. I might as well get grad school information while I'm there I guess.

I don't know if I'll be able to find the camels, but there seems to be a few spots where we aren't really doing anything, so I might be able to go looking for some.

Hopefully I'll be able to post again tonight once I make it to Washington. I have to leave for the airport around 3:30 pm, and should arrive in the Capital around 7:30.
