Well folks have been telling me about this park for ages and I always wondered, given all my walkabouts in Bloomingdale, why I never encountered it. Now I know why – it’s only accessible through an alley. I was lucky enough to stop at Big Bear for a coffee and there was a community yard sale being advertised with directions to Crispus Attucks Park. It’s located via the alley between 1st Street and North Captiol and V St and U St. And it is awesome!
I particularly liked the memory garden:

Beautiful! Check it out next time you’re wandering around Bloomingdale.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
