Things to Do and See in the Area...


What makes this area so special is its proximity to Washington, DC, which is about 15 minutes away in non-rush hour traffic, and the fact that it offers every variety of restaurants and retail shops to the consumer in such a concentrated yet open area!

Of course, the DC metro area itself is also filled with unlimited sources of culture and entertainment.  Here are some links which will give you a feel for what's going on in the greater Capital area:
