Stay tuned.

A reader reported around 7:15pm Monday night: “More weird stuff in the skies. Anyone else see this drone flying over Mt Pleasant just now?
It is possibile that it was a helicopter, but it very much reminded me of the drones I saw flying over the city during the 2020 protests– I lived right above Cardozo high at the time and could clearly them see them hovering around then. It had the characteristic pulsing red lights and occasional green light. From my perspective it looked to be hovering over Mt Pleasant Rd and Kenyon when I noticed it eventually flying off toward Columbia Heights. Possible I was just overthinking it/being paranoid. Who knows?”
Anyone else see it?

Thanks to all for passing on the news from Tsehay Ethiopian:
“Dear Tsehay Family, Friends, and Our Beloved Community,
It is with a heavy heart that I share some difficult news. After much thought and consideration, Tsehay Restaurant will be temporarily closing its doors by the end of this year.
For the past year and a half, we have experienced an incredibly challenging time. Our business has slowed and cost of goods keeps rising tremendously, and despite our continued efforts, it has become increasingly difficult to keep our restaurant operating. We have also tried to work with our landlord to find a way forward by asking for some relief on our rent, but unfortunately, we have not been able to reach an agreement.
This decision has not been easy. Tsehay is so much more than a restaurant to me. It is (more…)
