Washington, DC (USA)

[work (we had an off-site at L'Enfant Plaza) - left office at 1700 and took Metro to U-Street Station - walked around nearby and ended up getting dinner at Ben's Chili Bowl (1740) - then walked a short distance to Sudhouse, where I joined the Green Drinks Happy Hour - even though they had cans of beer on discount, I tried something local on tap (Lost Rhino) - met a lot of interesting people: Louisa (hostess), Bort (Australian PhD who worked at Smithsonian Natural History Museum in their three story plant diversity lab), Barry (Green Investment Manager), Nirvana (self help author and massage therapist) and many other people who were interested in the environment - I stayed from about 1800 to 1930 and then took Metro back to Huntington - home by 2030]
