Yesterday while Cathy and the Deputy Regional Adminisrator were on an important phone call with Headquarters office in DC, Florida Governor Crist dropped by the office to thank NOAA Regioanal Office staff for their work on the BP catastrophe.  The Governor had a local TV news crew in tow.  That evening there was a televised report of the Governor's surprise visit. 

In case anyone forgot, the Governor (formerly Republican) is running for the US Senate as an Independent.
