Friday (June 18) was my last day working in the National Press Building. The KRT Editorial Offices and the Knight Ridder Washington Bureau are combining offices and moving to a newly constructed building a few blocks away. Throughout last week everyone loaded their belongings into orange crates for movers to carry away. After 5:00 Friday the movers began their work.

For my part the move has been relatively painless. Rather than leaving my work camera and laptop at the office Friday I took them home with me. When I went in Monday I didn’t have much moving in to do. As an intern (free labor), I had feared that this move might be much worse.
