Where you at, Stafford or F-burg?

Nice, i have lots of good memories of visiting DC. Can't imagine driving there on a regular basis though.

^this. i cant wait to go back next year with my brz! im probably gonna stay in a hotel towards the outer area and just take the metro again!! gonna try to catch the cherry blossom festival next spring :thumbup:

I've driven all these streets before, however DC never seems to be that traffic-free. What gives?

Those were taken on a Sunday afternoon on my way to work...:cry:

North Stafford... :)

That doesn't happen very often...:mad0259:
