“Dear PoPville,

On Tuesday evening 4/6, I was out in Columbia Heights for a walk with my dog Reagan. We were headed South on Sherman Avenue near Columbia Road when we came up to a dog traffic jam on the sidewalk. You and your pup were headed towards us while a couple tried to rein in their dog that was barking at both of ours.

As you passed by, you noticed I was wearing a Butler University hat and mentioned your friend went there. I very cooly responded “oh that’s neat” and then before we could keep talking my dog, Reagan, started barking over me as any solid wingman would do.

I walked away wishing we had been able to chat more, I quickly got that wish as we ran into each other again on 11th and you introduced me to Hank who doesn’t see very well at night. We chatted a bit and then parted ways before I could get your name, but both you and Hank seem like you would be great to grab a coffee with sometime!

Sincerely,

Reagan’s Dad”
