Forest Hills Connection
@foresthillsconnect.bsky.social
At foresthillsconnection.com, covering news and life in the Forest Hills, Van Ness, North Cleveland Park and Wakefield neighborhoods of the District of Columbia. Plus, the occasional foray into Cleveland Park, Tenleytown and Chevy Chase.
📸 Cumberland Street. And the ginkgo colors are glorious. We've seen several people dash into the middle of Cumberland and Appleton Streets to snap their own pics.
🍂 🍁 Peak fall color in the past but still plenty of pretty scenes in the DC area and another mild weekend ahead. Keep an eye on the gingkoes -- not just because they're stinky 👃 but bc they like to drop their leaves all at once. Some rain Saturday night could do it. More at cwg.live.

The interior is taking shape and Dog Haus hopes to open sometime in December.

Leaf collection has begun, but you don't have to rake. Put the leaves to work in your yard and garden instead.
