“Dear PoPville,
Jogging in rock creek park around 330 Sunday I saw a group of people crowded on boulder bridge looking down into the creek at a beaver that wasn’t moving. Word going around was that an off leash dog had attacked it about 20 minutes earlier.
I’m not a dog owner and don’t know protocol for the park. But I hope people visiting the park with dogs realize the risks involved for wildlife. I love that we have beavers living in the middle of our city. I’ve seen them swimming in Rock Creek three or four times before. Today’s sighting was devastating.”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
