(I was waiting for the H&C space to be built out more fully, which is still in the pipeline--or at least that's the story I'm sticking to. #lazy)

While I am not one to be shopping for either running equipment or slim-fit men's dress shirts, I appreciated that staffs at both stores did not run screaming when I came in with a camera and used those words that so often strike fear, "neighborhood blogger." I did, alas, miss the bourbon cart that was set up outside H&C earlier in the day.

Pacers:

Hugh & Crye:

Also noticed during this visit--Bluejacket has repainted its sign, the result of which is that you can now actually see it (and photograph it). Yay! (No signage yet at Pacers or H&C, though.)

PS: If you want a steady social media stream of JDLand photos (current and archival), note that I have finally/belatedly joined Instagram, at jdland_dc.
