I don't usually respond to comments like this, but this time I will.
This is a friendly thread, and the regulars post many interesting photos/comments. Yes it is focused on Fairfax, but it is not uncommon to find picture or comments from other areas of the D.C. Metro area.
People feel free to ask questions, and it is possible to learn something.
Please don't troll on this thread or attempt to bully because you are a miserable person.
Thanks -
