from H Street, NE back in THE DAY

Sticking around or heading out of town – hope everyone has a safe and meaningful long weekend.

Catch you on Tuesday.

And if we do get a legit snow on Sunday – be sure to send your snow/dogs/cats/miscellaneous photos to us at [email protected] (please include pet name and your neighborhood) and we’ll be sure to post them when I get back online. [Ed. Note: For those who sent pics from last storm that didn’t get posted, you’re in the regular animal fix queue and will be posted eventually. I promise! Will email ya the day I post so you don’t miss it.]

Stay warm!

Happy New Year!!
