Three factions tried really hard to put me in DC to run my own slice of the show there but there isn't enough money in anyone's budget to get me to return there. Tampa is a lot more my style.

It's a shame that your mission couldn't continue but, the bright side is that you get to come back to the States .... and with a job awaiting you. Tampa / St. Pete is a nice area .. visited there but, haven't been back since Reagan was president. They have pretty good baseball and football teams, as I hear.
Regarding DC, sometimes I think that it's another planet down there. I lived in suburban Maryland for 3 years, back in the 80's and it was nuts .... then. I can't even fathom what it would be like now.
