A rainy end to the workweek isn’t too bad when a decent late spring weekend is on tap.
The weather isn’t the only thing to look forward to. Two new members of the ARLnow team start on Monday: a summer intern and a new Evening Editor. Plus, our reporter Jo DeVoe will be moving into a new editing and reporting role.
Before that happens, let’s take a look at the most-read articles from the past week.
