I got to go to Washington DC last week with Stephen for a quick day trip. Stephen was receiving an award for his involvement in the Kingston case a few years ago. This case is the biggest case of tax fraud in US history. They defrauded the government out of half a billion dollars. I wanted to go to support Stephen in his accomplishment and experience DC at the same time because who knows when I'll ever get another chance. So we spent one day walking over 8 miles (some of which were in high heels) walking around the National Mall looking at all the monuments. I was only able to choose one museum to see, so we went to the American History Museum and it did not disappoint. It was so fun being with Stephen that day.
His award ceremony was held in the Treasury Building in the cash room. The inside of these federal buildings are so neat--so ornate and old and wonderful. It was such a treat to be able to be a part of this experience. We also had dinner with the rest of his team, so it was fun to have a mini reunion of sorts and catch up on everyone's lives.
