Navy Yard

Storm Day + 7 Checking on plowing, alleys and a couple crazy vids of snow collapses

By Prince Of Petworth

“Dear PoPville,

1201 Half Street, SE

“Dear PoPville,

I’m so sad to hear about the news of Basebowl’s closing. It will always hold a special place in my heart — it unexpectedly became part of a fun ‘tradition’ with a new person in my life!

I met this guy in the summer of ‘24 out in the wild (in DC, meaning an ABA networking event that I crashed with a friend). We saw each other a few more times in a chaotic kind of way, but our friendship / budding romance rekindled in the spring of ‘25 with the start of baseball season.
