The expressions on their faces were not what I would describe as admiration

And no I was just counting on my fingers and then making notes in my phone lol

Left in any direction off of Braddock

Bike lane opponents say that if left turn lanes are eliminated (to accommodate the bike lanes) it will cause a traffic apocalypse

So I'm trying to figure out how many cars are actually turning left

A post in the I Love Alexandria Facebook group. It's a picture of a crow perched on the railing of a restaurant patio. The post says "This is an odd post, but I beleive someone's tamed Raven is hanging out at Dos Amagos for the past few days.  Very friendly enough to let ya gently pet. Which makes me think it's a pet. Or I'm just weird to think so."

Please stop petting the crow at Dos Amigos

Every time I go past this house I think about what a waste it is to put one huge unit on this lot

At a wedding in Aguadilla and there’s a kid fully passed out across two folding chairs as if it was an intentional recreation of the scene that paid tribute to the phenomenon in the Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show. 11/10 no notes.

In the mid-20th century, NYC planners were convinced that the solution to their traffic woes was that building one more bridge or one more tunnel would ease congestion of their epic traffic jams because the new artery would reduce pressure on the existing ones.  Instead, they discovered that traffic expanded to meet each new roadway.

In Alexandria we seem to believe that making our primary thoroughfares more attractive to a few more bike commuters and changing the timing of traffic signals will offset the off-the-charts increase in housing density planned for development in the coming years.

A dog stares haughtily at me from the front steps of a house

Things discovered while canvassing:

I knocked the door of a family with four kids whose names start with K, did not realize we have our own Kardashians in ALX

I also met this majestic creature who sat there and placidly watched while I stuck lit into the gate

Selfie with Sandy lit. I'm wearing a pink shirt that matches the wall at the Front Porch. Don Beyer is photo bombing me in the background

As a resident of the Del Ray-Rosemont boundary I am taking care to equally insult both neighborhoods in this thread

Mt Jefferson Park on Hume. The Del Ray people of course think this is the only Blue Park because they are the center of the universe

No no you have it backwards, Rosemont people like parks, they DON'T like houses where people who might go to the parks can live
