Photo by DCMattDCist is planning on heading up to the Field School on Foxhall Road this evening to listen to a mayoral debate between Adrian Fenty, Vincent Gray and Leo Alexander hosted by the Palisades Citizens Association. Getting there, however, will require hiking through a forested ravine in severe thunderstorms. Fun! (Martin, come pick me up!) We’d tell you to go home already, but since it’s raining, you may be camped out at the office.
Enjoy your evening and see you tomorrow!
