EPA Internship

Congratulations, Julia, on getting two interviews for internships at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)! The first panel interview (four people!) went well and they have already let her know they want her. Ms. Prudent told them she had another interview this week…so we'll see which one she chooses. Very exciting; we're so proud! The EPA is going to get one dedicated, hard-working enviro-nerd for the summer.

Julia and friends went to see Matt and Kim in concert. They also finished their big engineering project. The end is near!

The Alt Expose with Ruth and Rose show had a special guest this week, Patrick! And, it happened to be his birthday.

Here in DC, the World Bank/IMF had their spring meetings and there was a huge Earth Day Festival on the Mall. One of our new tries at Wagshal's was elk burgers. Steven loved them and we bought more today.

Thunder Burger

Thunder Burger is a delicious burger joint, especially if you want to try something off the beaten path. 

 

We have been here several times (including it because we went just before starting the blog). Steven has enjoyed the elk, boar, and bison burgers. Julia and I usually get the premium, free-range, 8oz beef burger with fries/salad and customized toppings (tomato, charred peppers, raw red onion, grilled red onion, mushrooms, red peppers, caramelized red onion relish, cheese, bacon, guacamole, BBQ pulled pork, avocado, fried egg...and more).

 

One time we were there, they had run out of sweet potato fries--so they comped the regular fries.

Recommendation: Try the elk, boar, and bison! Beef burger is a sure bet!
