Pretty much just after getting back from Baylor Family Week-end, I got back on a plane on Thursday, September 26, to head to DC. Originally, I thought about driving, but I realized that I could fly into Baltimore on a direct, one hour flight (and for a pretty inexpensive rate) so I chose that route instead. On Friday, I attended my very first NCA Executive Committee meeting, as a guest, to learn more before I officially take office in January, 2014. What an opportunity!! I loved learning more about NCA, visiting the NCA National Office, and realizing that we were, literally, only about six blocks from the White House. After we finished meetings, I heard that we were close to the White House, and I decided to stretch my legs and walk over before our dinner reservations. Wow! I've been to DC before, but it's been awhile. I truly enjoyed the chance to pause in front of this facility and to get to know others who are involved in the work of the association.
