GFI, Task Force Encounter “Snowmageddon”

February 12, 2010

By Clark Gascoigne

Clark Gascoigne is the Communications Director at Global Financial Integrity in Washington, DC.

Apologies for the lack of updates over the past week.  As many people know, the Washington, DC-area has been hammered by massive snowstorms over the past week, and we’ve been snowed out of the GFI/Task Forces offices since last Friday.

Lovingly referred to as “snowmageddon” here in the DC-area, I wanted to share a couple of pictures of the storm’s aftermath taken from my cell phone over the past week.

This picture was taken on Belmont St NW, a side street just north of the Dupont Circle area of DC

Taken on 18th Street NW, in the Adams Morgan neighborhood of Washington, DC.

Anyway, today we’ve re-opened and are back to business here in the GFI and Task Force offices.
