📰 News we're reading

• Some Metro lines to operate on different schedule during Labor Day weekend (wtop.com) — If you rely on Hyattsville Crossing Metro, expect major changes this Labor Day weekend: Green Line trains won't run between Greenbelt and Hyattsville Crossing, with free shuttles every 8–10 minutes instead. Metro is upgrading signaling and clearing vegetation, while other lines see limited adjustments, so plan extra time if you're heading into D.C. or connecting from closed Greenbelt or College Park stations.
   

• The Fried Catfish At These 12 Maryland Restaurants Is Worth Driving From Anywhere (myfamilytravels.com) — Hyattsville diners get a special shout-out in this statewide fried catfish roundup, thanks to Busboys and Poets in the Arts District, praised for its crispy, flavorful catfish and lively cultural vibe. The piece frames Hyattsville as a worthy food destination, alongside other Maryland spots from Baltimore to Waldorf, for anyone willing to drive for standout Southern-style comfort food.
