You can talk about whatever is on your mind – quality of life issues, a beautiful tree you spotted, scuttlebutt, or any random questions/thoughts you may have. But please no personal attacks. I’ll open this thread every morning at 10am.
Couple of lost and founds from readers this morning:
“I was walking to the Red Derby tonight, and a block and a half away, to the East, on the North side of Quincy, I found a nice small backpack sitting on the sidewalk, all zipped up. I checked the house it was in front of, and they had no ideas. I opened it up, and found no ID or clues. It was packed with a down jacket, a warm looking hat, and maybe some gloves.”
If you think it’s yours the folks at Red Derby will keep it for a week.
“Walking home from work this evening and found keys at 14th & V St. N.W., on the Reeves Building side, across from the empty take-out place (potential Mexican restaurant). The fob looked like the one for my building at Union Row, so I grabbed them just in case. Fob doesn’t work here or for the Flats.
If someone’s lost keys and can describe them, I am happy to return them.”
If you think they’re yours email me and I’ll connect you with the reader.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
