Who We Are
Gretchen is a native of Madison, Wisconsin. She left the high-powered world of politics for a life of leisure and Hausfrau-dom and isn't sure what comes next. Kirk is a native of San Diego, California. He just finished a three-year work assignment in Basel, Switzerland in March 2007 and has returned to his former job. They just moved back to the Washington, DC area with Mädchen, a precocious two-year-old.
What Time Is It in Washington, DC?
- ON Eastern Daylight Time
- 5 hours behind London
- 6 hours behind Basel
- 1 hours ahead of Wisconsin
- 3 hours ahead of California
- 16 hours behind Sydney and Melbourne (we think).
