Dan Silverman, Citizen of the District of Columbia

17 years is a lot of walkabouts, a lot of photos, a lot of messages, a lot of ups and downs and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. 17 years is such a crazy number to write. 17 years. 17 years of openings and closings and everything in between. A lot has happened in that time. I remember most of it. If you’re overwhelmed by some of the current coverage here or on social media, as I know I am at times, just know – it’s always up and down and, hopefully, ultimately up.

As I do every year I just want to thank you, the readers for making this all possible. I do not take you for granted. And I know that I could not share so much news/info without your tips, emails, photos etc. So truly, thank you, thank you, thank you – and keep them coming! [[email protected] or @PoPville on social media.]

And if you are in place to contribute to our long term survival please consider joining our Patreon. Whether you are able to give $2 or $20 a month it all helps. And you’ll get a bonus PoPville Plus + post every Wednesday.

If you’d rather buy me a “beer or coffee” that would be much appreciated too and you can do so here.

Thanks for considering and thanks to all who have supported us over the years.

Another good way to help out is to sign up for our free daily newsletter so you never miss a post. Oh yeah and if you want to pick up a shirt or other merch you can do so here.

This year I’m going to tip back a few beers at my beloved Looking Glass Lounge (3634 Georgia Ave, NW) remembering where it all started. So if you’re around Thursday November 2nd, come join me for a beer or three. I’ll be there from around 6-10pm and will post a reminder as we get closer to the date. Cheers!

If you are able and would like to support the page through our Patreon, you can contribute as little as $2 bucks a month and it really helps out. Thanks for considering! And if you do join, you’ll also get access to PoPville Plus + and this week we’re admiring some sweet architecture.

Cheers, thanks again, and Go Nats!

Sincerely,

Half of you are already gone, but for the half still hanging in there – I want to wish all the happiest of holidays. Like the last few years, it’s been a helluva year in so many ways. Thanks for sticking with us throughout all the ups, downs and in-betweens. The community we have created together continues to amaze me. Thanks for all your tips, questions, messages, photos, words of support, financial support and simply for reading and being part of PoPville.

Normally, I preload posts when I’ll be offline but since Monday is a Federal holiday and Monday, Jan. 2nd is a Federal holiday – I’m gonna take the opportunity to take an actual break too. Please continue to send your tips, photos etc. ([email protected] and/or DM me @PoPville) and I’ll be sure to get to them upon my return in the new year. I’ll pre-post some rant/revels next week so all will not be silent :)

Take good care and be well,
Dan
