The Week Ahead… and Photos from the Past Week

More than 200 neighbors showed up Saturday morning to peacefully protest the continued fencing off of the US Capitol.
Among the demonstrators was Capitol Hill resident and DC Representative Norton and poster-carrying Ward 6 Councilmember Charles Allen.
The four mile fence not only interrupts the flow of vehicular, pedestrian and bike traffic but prohibits access to green space which Capitol Hill residents and visitors have come to regard as an essential part of the Capitol Hill community.
Spring returns to the Farmers’ Line at Eastern Market as seen on Sunday afternoon.
And the warm weather brought back a full complement of the Eastern Market arts amd crafts vendors.
And here’s a noon time scene inside the Market on Sunday.

      It looks to me like she is being interviewed and is keeping social distance. We are being a bit hypercritical, no?
