Default NOVA Appreciation

Just returned from a business trip to NOVA and in particular Arlington area, just wanted to drop a note to those of you in the area. What beautiful country, I have been to the area 3 times this year for business and each time I am blown away by the wonder of natures beauty and the beautiful homes. I wish I had my car there to enjoy the area but JetBlue does not allow it as carry on and hell no I would not check it.

For the first time in my life, having grown up a Southern California boy i was able to see the beauty of fall first hand, I was able to drive the GW PKWY on the way back to Dulles and what a beautiful site. I was damn cold though.

Anways, just thought i would post a comment. Also how nice it was that most every driver was polite and courteous. Wish we had that here.

BTW...only saw 2 vettes, I would assume that was because of the time of year, but nonetheless it was beautiful.

Polite and NOVA drivers don't belong in the same sentence usually.

Having moved here from CNY 6 years ago, I noticed that the drivers here are much more rude than drivers back where I am from. I guess it's all relative, though.

If you ever make it out here with your vette, lemme know, there are some great corvette roads here.
