[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Fairfax County is huge.[/b] Inside the beltway is of course very crowded for the most part. But there is also Burke, Clifton, GMU, Fairfax Station, and Old Town Herndon etc. You just can't paint the whole place with one wide brush.[/quote] This. What a stupid post. [/quote] Troll nonsense... walked into a leafy hood!... friggin' sidewalks. walked into a wall for I66... What empty nester talks like that? And if OP really lived in North Arlington and now lives in DC (though they are getting their car worked on in Merrifield?), they would have to be utterly clueless to not understand why Fairfax County would appeal to many, for a variety of reasons. I call shenanigans![/quote] +1. If not a troll, OP is one of those types who visits France for a week and spends the rest of her life talking about how much higher the quality of life is in Europe than in the US.[/quote] OP here. How are empty nesters supposed to talk exactly? I have to say “friggin’” because this site won’t let me say what I really would say. 😊 [/quote] You could say things that make sense? Like "I couldn't find anything to do while my car was worked on" would make sense (although it would remain unclear why you felt this worth sharing). "I dislike Fairfax County" does not make sense, in that same way that saying "I dislike things whose name contains the letter R" would make no sense.[/quote] I felt it “worth sharing” that I found it difficult to get a decent walk in - even on a beautiful day - in the largest suburban county in the region because there were so many missing sidewalks, so much insane traffic, and an incredible amount of ugly and boring monotony. I’ve seen far less important things shared on DCUM. [/quote] I'll say it again, the county is huge. The W&OD Trail goes across the whole thing and is a wonderful place to walk. I'm partial to Reston that has miles of trails intertwined through it. I'm guessing you are enjoying being a contrarian, which is fine, but it is coming off as really narrowminded. [/quote]
