Just a week ago I was asking what happened to the Pop Clothing boutique? Well, looks like a new clothing store, Rue 14, will be coming soon. Anyone ever heard of them?

I don’t care what the haters say, I dig Adams Morgan Day. It’s just a nice feeling. There’s tons of food, music, drinks, art etc. So did anyone check it out? Good times? Better than last year/previous years? What’s your favorite part?

H Street, NE around 8pm on Friday night.
Gentleman in his 30s: “How you ladies doing tonight?”
Ladies: “Fine”.
Gentleman: “I know you’re FINE, I’m asking how ya doing?”
Awesome.
On other H Street news, I had the opportunity to check out the Atlas theater for the first time. It is an incredible building. I highly recommend checking it out. I caught a production of 1984 and it only cost 10 bucks.

Last Thursday was the Ethiopian New Year (on the Gregorian calendar). It has just turned 2001!
On a side note here is a picture of an Ethiopian stew that was being made outside a church near my house. It smelled delicious. I had some language barriers with the folks I was talking to but I did learn it is very spicy…
Remember the Lofstel? A reader has tipped me to some competition: DC Lofty has opened up near H Street, NE.
The Web site says:
“DC Lofty offers an affordable luxury housing option for interns, international and local students in a dorm-style bedroom setting. We strive to be your number one destination for DC, located just a few blocks from the central Union Station metro stop, and shops just within a block!”
Prices are $850 for one month or $700 if you book three months. You can also get a bed for $34.95 a night.
So given the price of rents do you think Lofstel, DC Lofty and other places like this are going to be on the rise?

This was sponsored by the same folks, mentoring works 2, who had one back in July. There were many of the same faces including Cmdr. Groomes. Sadly I didn’t see Mrs. District of Columbia…


I don’t know how it’s taken me this long to find it…
It’s located at 18th and Harvard.

It’s hard to find gardens with color this time of year but there’s still a few around…

Thanks to a reader for the tip. As you can still it is still in progress but nearly completed. After the jump take a closer look at the elephant, pretty sweet. (more…)

Wild iron work and most definitely a bizarre lawn decoration. Check out close up of lawn decoration after the jump. (more…)
