I hate to do this, but is there anyway we could reschedule coffee for a later date? Perhaps during a recess week? A couple of unexpected things popped up in the last 18 hours and I don't think I'm going to be able to make it over your direction today.
I'm so sorry for the inconvenience-1 was really looking forward to it!

Why don't you come to 1200 PA Ave (EPA) and we can walk to the coffee place across the street? Sound OK?

That's so fun! I've heard they throw the best meetings. Have you ever met Charles Small? If not, you should connect with him at the meeting! He's so great- he used to work for Governor Cuomo but he's now running Mayor Garcetti's DC office and I know he's heading to the mayors meeting next week.
Could you do Tuesday morning at 10:45?

Tate,
There was some confusion and I am so sorry! I just talked to my Iowa folks again today and they said the Region reached out again and was extremely helpful and is going to meet with them in person in July.
Thank you so much! The issue isn't fully resolved yet so I'm sure you'll be hearing from me again, but you've been wonderful to work with and I really appreciate all of your help.
Thanks! Stephanie

I hope all has been going well in your world!
I just wanted to circle back with you on this issue. Have you had a chance to talk with the EPA team on this? Could we get a phone call on the schedule with the EPA team and the Iowa Team? This is a big issue for us and we'd really appreciate discussing this letter.
Thanks! Stephanie
