In the swirl that is going to be this week's political events in Washington, I was lucky enough yesterday to grab some coffee with a friend and colleague from our community in New Orleans. Yes, the coffee was amazing, and no, I didn't even have a praline with it (though I did return today for a massive doughnut). It was a great opportunity to reconnect with the reasons why, and how, we found ourselves in the Salesforce non-profit community.

I walked away from the chat knowing that I might not have the map for the next few years in our community (or world, as you may), but I'm glad I'm sitting in the same proverbial coffee shop as you to roll-up our sleeves and keep empowering our community together. Luckily, you all were pretty busy this week, and helped create one of the most action packed PUB Crawls. So pull up a barstool, grab a beignet (or three), and let's dive in to this week's cup of knowledge.

Ah, the joy of living in Washington DC during an odd-numbered year in January. The sight of congressional members wearing their back-to-school outfits, preparation for a weekend of civic events during an inauguration period, and bone-chilling winds off the Potomac river.

It's all enough to keep this PUB Crawl reporter drinking tall cups of coffee and diving into some great Power of Us Hub research. Enjoy this how-many-days-until-summer edition of the PUB Crawl!

Welcome to 2017, amigos! To start of the new year, we're beginning a process of updating the PUB Crawl newsletter to make it more readable based on your suggestions. That's going to include updates to the design, content, and potentially a cutting edge scratch-and-sniff edition filled with the aromas of a taqueria.

A guy can dream, right?
