OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) - Gov. Chris Gregoire is out of the state, but her office won't say where she is.

According to The Bellingham Herald, Whatcom County spokesman Joe Bates says he flew to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on Sunday on the same flight with Gregoire. Bates says he chatted with the governor but she did not discuss the reason for her trip to the Washington, D.C., area.

Gregoire was set to be the keynote speaker Tuesday at a pre-legislative session forum sponsored by The Associated Press, but her office has canceled. Legislative director Marty Brown will stand in for her.

Gregoire spokesman Pearse Edwards says the governor plans a Tuesday morning announcement. He did not immediately return a call for comment on the D.C. report.
