haha, moving an hour away from where I work or could work (Arlington, VA or DC) would mean my commute would be 1.5hrs one way in traffic, not an option.

We were looking at Charlottesville because I have an office down there and my wife can work at the hospital there... but client work for what I do is not always around.

I'm with Dave... i'd rather have a decent place around here than a mansion in bumfuck nowhere

Not me. I'd rather have space and not live right on top of someone w/o any privacy where I can escape the traffic and not take 30 min to drive a mile in my own town.

Oh I agree that I rather have a single family house, but realistically that is not going to happen for a number of years.

Yeah but how long does it take you to get to Arlington, VA or Washington DC from your house?

We're using a ~10year old dustbuster for quick clean up around the house, but I notice it's battery really doesn't hold a strong charge for long now. I was wondering, have dust busters really improved much over the past decade? Are there any real powerful suckers out there now, or are they still limited to minor shit and wiping it over stuff 3 times?

I have the Dyson one. Its awesome.One pass picks up everything. A little expensive though.

Depending on traffic lights, it takes me 35-45 min to get to south capital street (I used to make that drive 3-4 days a week). Google maps takes you the long way, if you know the back roads, it saves you A LOT of time. It takes me 55min to get to my in-laws in Old Town Fairfax. ;) I've also made it to George Mason in 35 minutes from Waldorf. :lol:

Example: If I take rt 301 from La Plata to Brandywine, it takes 30-35 minutes depending on the timing of the lights. If I take rt488-rt5-mattawoman/beantown road, it takes 15min.
