 Yup, it's time for me once again to mention that it was on January 19, 2003 when I made my husband drive me around that neighborhood south of the freeway, which we rarely ventured into, so that I could take some pictures (without getting out of the car, of course), since I'd heard there were some plans to revitalize the public housing and also the areas right along the Anacostia River. (Yeah, right, that'll be the day, we said to each other.) I had no grand plans to launch an all-consuming project that would document what might be coming--I just felt like getting some photos. And now here we are, starting Year 10 of this. I'm saving deep ruminations on the journey until (if?) I successfully cross the First Decade finish line, so for now I'll just say my heartfelt thanks to everyone who reads, comments, passes along information, and provides assistance, because there's no way I'd still be here without all of you. And I think folks should prepare themselves for the coming avalanche of posts and photos, because 2012 looks to be Near Southeast's busiest year since the golden Nationals Park construction/opening era. (I need a nap already.)

Congratulations! I've been following this thread since college--probably 6 or 7 of your 9 years!

Look forward to your look backs JD!
By the way, my tenth anniversary is not too far away either.

Thanks for all your coverage. I remember when I saw you on a muddy First Street. Was that 2006?
Yikes!
JD says: (1/19/12 6:38 PM)
Thanks, all. Yes, Jay, it was 2006.
(For the record, this is not my overall blogging anniversary, or even my JDLand.com anniversary. Those dates predate my Near SE stuff considerably, and serve to further prove how old the Old Bat is getting....)

Thanks for all you do JD! It's such an amazing and important archive of what has happened and continues to be a great resource for all of the progress that is being made.
