Short Attention Span Adventurer 500 words on whatever is occupying my mind. Today: Next stop, Chi-town!

I write a weekly Substack blog about my adventures and thoughts as a newly retired but not-dead-yet 64 year old woman. Enjoy my latest, about a quick but eventful trip to Chicago.

Deeply grateful to receive the Chairman's Medal at my 190th & final Commission meeting as the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Director of Media Relations. It's been a privilege these past 17 years to work on the FERC mission & vision & to work hard to explain what FERC does in Plain English.
