The city was unnaturally

The city was unnaturally dead this past weekend. Well, sort of.

Eastern Market was as crowded as ever. But I heard some vendors complaining about a lack of sales.

And the MickeyDs behind the FBI was all but empty, with just a bag lady and some guy sleeping on a stool. Wonder if the suspension of FBI tours has killed their business.
Walking around, it just seemed like an incredible lack of people.

I read elsewhere that even the Pentagon City Fashion Centre was quiet.

Nothing that could be accounted for by a lack of tourism. On it’s worst day, DC was normally busier.

Wondering just how many people heard about the suspected second attacks for this weekend.
