Olympia correspondent Austin Jenkins takes KNKX's Ed Ronco on a tour of the state Capitol Campus.
Never walk across the state Capitol Campus with Austin Jenkins if you’re in a hurry.
Fortunately, we are not in a hurry as Jenkins shows us around today, which is good, because he stops every so often to chat with someone he knows: a staffer at the front desk of the Capitol visitors’ office, a lawmaker making his way across the rotunda to a meeting, an acquaintance whose son was on the same basketball team as his.
The truth is, Jenkins gets around this place with plenty of speed — he says he can get from his office to the rotunda in under three minutes — and knows the Capitol Campus inside and out.
