No More Exile

#Capitol Hill #Pictures #Redskins #stereophonics #Washington DC

It has been quite a few months since I posted last and there has been plenty going on. The lask of updates was partly due to crazy work load and partly due to a gag order on blogging about the fact that I have to return to Ireland by March. Until all the appropriate people knew that we were going home, we didn’t want them to find out via a blog.

In any case, it is official – Jen and I are heading back to the Emerald Isle by March 1st 2009 at the latest. Sad news, but there is nothing to be done about it – apparently I am not educated enough to get a green card and so off I go. On the bright side, I do get to keep my job – I just have to do it from 3,000 miles away.

We’ll be celebrating our last Thanksgiving with Scott and Lori in Scott’s place tomorrow (thanks for the invite Scott, and the cooking Lori!) which will be excellent. We’ll also be around for the inauguration and will have had at least a small part of our stay under someone other than George W. Bush as president (and in a Blue Virginia!) for which I am very grateful to the electorate.

Last but not least are the pictures (on Flickr as usual). We’ve been quite busy as you can see, in something approaching chronological order we have:

Stereophonics @ 9.30 Club

Redskins Vs Cleveland with Matt & TK

Some Shooting

A Tour of Capitol Hill

A long Weekend in Charleston

Hopefully it won’t be as long a gap too my next post, but I think if anything it will just get busier in the near future with the move prep….
