Earlier today, I attended the American Foundation for the Blind’s (AFB) National Leadership Conference in Chicago where I received the 2013 Migel Medal.

While I was at the ATIA conference in Florida, our Director of Marketing was in Washington DC at another conference. But, it's not just in Washington DC.

In early October, I'll be heading to Washington DC for a board meeting of the Social Enterprise Alliance , the group that promotes social enterprise among nonprofits, and then on to Seattle for a board meeting of RAF Technology, Inc., Of course, I'll be trying to arrange meetings with people in both Washingtons!

We were sitting in the shade outside the conference facility, but there was good wifi. Interviewed several candidates for executive positions at Benetech. The Marrakesh Treaty.
