RE: German Shepard
   
  We saw the same dog running past police station, by the school and then up towards riversdale mansion on Friday at around noon.  We let the police know. Hope it safely found its way home

Want to walk for fun and exercise this weekend? 
Some of us are doing just that.

I leave home at 4 p.m. and get to Town Center at the Marc
railroad station at about 4:05 and wait a few minutes for others to
show up. Join us there, or at the park a few minutes later. We enter
the park at 51st Avenue & Somerset Road and turn left (north). You 
can join us pretty much anywhere along there.

I plan on doing this walk Saturday and Sunday this weekend 1/20/07. 
Please join us. No need to RSVP, but it is easier to hook up if we 
know to expect you.

Trolley Line Walk - Feb 3

50 years ago, a movie was made about the Washington Streetcars.
It shows a trolley rolling up R.I. Ave, through Hyattsville, Riverdale
and College Park in the late 1950s.

Come see this short, 15-minute glimpse into our past on Saturday, 
Feb 3, 2007, 3 p.m. at the S&J Restaurant, town center,
6108 Rhode Island Ave and Queensbury Road. 

After the viewing, weather permitting, we'll take a walk and identify 
some landmarks from the film.

In the movie, we "catch" the streetcar (line #82) where it turns
onto Rhode Island Ave from 4th street in the district. Here the
trolley runs on tracks up the middle of Route One. We skip
forward to see a few of the sites, such as the railroad underpass, the
"terminal cafe" in Berwyn Heights, and a glimpse of downtown
Hyattsville. From there the trolley follows along beside the
railroad tracks into Riverdale Park, where you get a glimpse of our
town center from the late 1950s - including the S&J restaurant 
building where we will be viewing the movie . Then we see the trolley 
continuing north thru Riverdale and into College Park. 

I will, of course, send another email to TownTalk about this just before Feb 3.

Take care

Ward One Councilman, Riverdale Park

I would love a Ben & Jerry's and the like, but, Dude Guy.

LOL, yes Andrew, I actually frequent Little Giant, admittedly, but it's not 
quite what I would call upscale folk, cuisine! ;-)
GREAT Greek Salad too!

Friday about 2:00 pm I saw a beautiful 
young slender German Shepherd at 
'Rt 1 & Queensbury Road, - went 
running down Queensbury and tried to
get into Gepettos side fence....looked 
up & saw my car, got frightened &
took off down Queensbury. I got out & 
called to it but it was terrified of me &
barked and took off running around
Dumms corner & down riverdale Rd.
It seemed to be looking at all the
fenced properties & sniffing.

It had on a black rolled cloth
type collar swinging from his
neck. Dont know if it was a 
male or female. Happened too
quickly. It did not know about cars
& traffic.
