WOW!
Today flew by- we left the National 4-H Conference Center at 8:15 am this morning. We meet with Jeff Merkily, Suzanne Bonamici, Curt Scheber and Peter DeFazio.
We also saw the Botanic Gardens, Air and Space Museum, Natural History Museum, Jefferson Library and Native American Museum.
My feet are just about worn off from walking miles underground and above but I wouldn't trade this trip for anything. (We are all a little bit of walking zombies.) Tomorrow we leave the conference center at 4am. I am not looking forward to getting up at 3am... however I am so glad we got to do so much here and meet so many wonderful people.
Tonight I had dinner with the delegates from Canada, we have a roommate from California and I made friends with kids all around the country. Im disappointed I can't come back next year! I will be back hopefully when I'm old enough to help run a roundtable discussion team.
Thank you mom and dad for raising me to be the young woman I am today.
Thank you to the National 4-H center for having us
Thank you Maggie and Janie for being amazing roommates and Oregon delegates
Thank you Rachel for joining us in the fun!
And Teresa for keeping us from getting lost in big buildings
Thank you to everyone who helped make this trip a big success.
Now before I fall over,
Goodnight,
