As I alluded to yesterday, last week I was in Washington, DC. Three days of work and a weekend of sightseeing with Liz and her family was the plan. I've been working with my client there for 16 months, having made four trips to Washington and one to Key West as part of our initial scope.

But this trip ended with an invitation somewhere special. As a complete surprise to me, my client had arranged for a private tour for us on Sunday, March 30.

This took us places we never thought we'd visit in our lifetimes. And it wasn't led by a tour guide, but rather a member of "management". We were able to take a few photos along the way...

Needless to say, this completely reinforces my ideas about working with the kind of clients I do. Yes - I did set foot in "the office". What a day.

Rob, I had no idea you were in the wagon wheel repair business.
