[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that you can find strawberries and splash pads elsewhere, pp. But the thing about Olney is that when you attend these events, you run into neighbors, people from school or OBGC, etc because Olney is like a sma town where you know everyone.

Someone recently posted something on the local listserv that the downside to living in our area is that you can't lay around in jammies over winter break because someone always drops by to say hello or hang out.

The thing about Olney/Brookeville is that people move out here *despite* the commute to DC...because it's worth it. [/quote]

While that sounds cozy and wonderful, I would never trade my 20 minute commute for that (DH as well).   Also, with a daily 8:30 bus drop, that extra time at home in the morning is really necessary.   If both parents work in the DC metro area, how does everyone get on the road before 7 to beat the traffic?     Sorry, not for me.   [/quote]

We have before care.  Our nanny comes at 6:15.  I leave first b/c I have to be in by 7. We're both home before the afternoon bus drop off.

You wouldn't find before care?  It's not that hard to do.

sorry - totally for me

I like that my kids can run around, and[b] I don't have to worry about cars and congestion[/b].[/quote]

Except twice a day on your commute. Irony.[/quote]

20-min commute one way

I hardly think that's exhausting.
