If this is fun. I'll post more. Pictures will be taken in person, not grabbed from Google maps. I've cropped and numbered them so you can use that with your guess.

I'll have to take more pictures. This is the only other one I have at the moment. I cropped the top above the treeline because it would be too easy otherwise.

You almost had me with the skyline thing. I knew I recognized it but I thought it must be Washington Blvd or Wilson Blvd near the Arlington county line. Then I recognized the building in the center. I take that route all the time to get around the usual weekend backup southbound on I-95 apporaching the Occoquan.

Heh, this is a good one.. I thought for sure it was Hooes Road but it isn't. Funny part is I'm pretty sure I recognize it.

Upward incline, concrete barrier, short exit ramp, very little merge area, dual signs posting speed limit. You just remember.

Yay, I guessed the second and third ones! Lee Chapel is fun if you are going fast enough to catch your stomach catching air. Just don't go too fast, as the roadside memorial will remind you.
