“Dear PoPville,
Wanted to ask if anyone knows of any bars that are resuming in-person pub trivia. Been looking forward to getting back into this activity now that things are opening up, but I haven’t seen it available yet.”
In addition to Nanny’s (above) Trusty’s (1420 Pennsylvania Ave SE) also has trivia on Tuesdays. Anyone know if trivia is back at Solly’s (11th and U St, NW)? Other spots back in action?

“Dear PoPville,
I had a question to the masses that I wasn’t able to get answered through my online sleuthing. I’m going on a trip away from DC and currently have my car parked on the street (legally). Since I won’t be here to move my car for street sweeping days, I’m concerned that I’ll be ticketed while I’m away. Curious if there are areas within DC that I can park my car at without it getting ticketed for street parking.”

A reader went to a non-DC location for their first Pfizer Covid vaccine and their second at the convention center. They received a bill for $83 from GW for their second shot and were curious if this has happened to anyone else?
Ed. Note: As we were reminded earlier this morning, the COVID-19 vaccine is free so definitely get yours if you haven’t already (also get $51 too!)
“Dear PoPville,
Any idea when we’re going to finally get Florida Ave between 4th & 6th st. NE back to normal traffic flow? I heard from the city that the sewage tunnel construction finally finished boring the hole last month and this was one of the sites for it. It’s been there for a hot second!”

“Dear PoPville,
I know Arlington doesn’t normally make it on to your radar, but Whitlow’s (originally a DC joint!) closed down last night (Saturday) and I am pining to know where all the friends I was packed in with are headed next weekend.
In particular, Sarah – you were right, (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
My partner and I are going on vacation for 12 days. There is a middle school-aged kid who lives down the hall from us, and I was thinking of asking her to water our plants for us while we’re gone. (I went through the plant phase of quarantine in a big way) How much should I offer to pay her? I was thinking $50 but I don’t know if that is too cheap in 2021!”
“Dear PoPville,
Will you share this thread please? I was approached by this man yesterday (Saturday) and looking at the thread a lot of other women were too in Logan circle”
Thanks to a neighbor for passing on from nextdoor about a parking space in the alley between Rodman and Porter Street, NW:
“He tried to block the corner with a cone but the cone didn’t stay in place – now he has glued down small nails. Where kids ride bikes. Watch your tires, watch your kids.”
Ed. Note: I don’t believe there is a QR code but DC Health launched a “Portal for Residents to Access COVID-19 Vaccination Records”.
“Dear PoPville,
I’m planning an international travel and the travel requirements of the destination require proof of full covid vaccination or negative PCR test, but both have to be in a digital certificate form with a QR code. (more…)
