I don't know pricing, but a lot of my friends have used her for all sorts of things, and we will use her when the time comes: http://funkhousephotography.com/

Not on a Thurs or Fri morning. That's prime families flying to Orlando time. (Learned that the hard way at BWI once.)

Those are likely all scams with stolen pics and an inability to see the unit until after you pay a deposit and first month's rent. Then you never get the keys.

I moved from Hill East last fall (after living there for a dozen years and just south of Gallaudet for four years before that) and was in the area a lot to go grocery shopping. That's why I said I wasn't comfortable.

Ugh, that really sucks. I'm so sorry you went through that.

That's not an area I would feel comfortable living in.

I grew up here, and have been back since I graduated college in 2004. There has been plenty of years that DC barely got anything long before 2018.

Then you should be used to this. (I'm a skier, I'm pissed too, I just don't get my hopes up.)

Slightly better than you're used to, but not by much.

We all know who you're talking about. There's plenty of stuff online about her. IANAL, but I don't think you can get a restraining order without police help, since you'll need proof and for them to enforce it. https://www.dccourts.gov/services/domestic-violence-matters/get-a-protection-order

You said nobody, but there's a reason Washington fans bring it up. Because it happened, and it happened to one of our own.

My husband is 5th or 6th generation from the area. I'm second generation to grow up in MoCo. Hubby actually went to the same high school as my dad, and MIL went to a neighboring school.

Capital Sport and Swim in Kensington carries them year-round. The owner is great at making you feel comfortable as you try them on.

There's a Capital Grille in DC, too. Tysons would be way far out of the way for what OP is asking.

Reply to comment by em_p_v in How has DC's ban on gas-powered leaf blowers been working out? by em_p_v
It's a long ass commute from DC to Pasadena, even if you're living right off 295. I lived in Hill East and commuted to Ft. Meade. It usually took me half an hour to get there, and an hour-plus to get home. If you only have to go in occasionally, it might not be that bad, but even once a week would be rough.

Check the daily schedule every day. But the president doesn't leave the WH every day, and it's often via Marine One when he does. You really missed your chance with the Africa Summit a couple weeks ago.

It wasn't bottomless before the pandemic. We often went there for our monthly brunch group.

Reply to How many roommates do you have (if you have any)? by [deleted]
Lived in Lanham with three friends from high school right after I graduated. Then lived in a two-bedroom place for four years with one roommate. When I bought my place, I usually had two roommates and a basement tenant until I got my dog. Then I only had one roommate and a basement tenant. I think I stopped about a year before I met my husband.
