Yeah, it has to do with an area that is wealthier than McLean and Great Falls. Whatever. Don't believe me check it out yourself. From Alexandria south on the parkway to Rt 1 is a very pricey area and has been for about 45 years. Yes, I know. We have some friends that lived south of Alexandria in a very tony area, What that has to do with a salon offering carp bowls for removal of dead toe skin escapes my imagination. Northern Virginia is just too damned congested these days for decent quality of life. When I had my office on the edge of Alexandria, it took me 15 minutes to drive over to a local coffee shop that was only three miles away. I have a number of friends who live throughout Northern Virginia. We meet in DC these days. BTW, did you know the Springfield area of Fairfax County is pretty much run over with MS-13 gang members these days? You won't catch me moving to No. Va. again. When I move it will be East until Assawoman Bay or South, 200 or more miles. |

When we go out to the Shenandoah, I try to get through the Northern Virginia portion of I-66 as quickly and quietly as possible. We start to breathe a little easier once we are west of Manassas. Once in a while my wife likes to shop at some of the stores at Tysons...I hate going there...but there are three stores at that mall with some appeal for me...restoration hardware, ll bean, and apple. I usually can kill enough time to match up with my wife's shopping. If it going to be a really long day, I head over to Microcenter, but, nowadays, if I need computer stuff, I hit the Microcenter store on Rockville Pike. We still like Virginia Beach, but we head down there through southern Maryland, and avoid the Virginia I-95 and Richmond messes. We're looking at some second home possibilities in the Hilton Head to Savannah areas. The problem is, it is one hell of a long drive. Flying is a possibility, but the airports in that area are dinky, and so are the planes. We like St. Simons Island in Georgia, but it is awfully far from just about everything and living there would probably drive me bonkers. |

Savannah's airport handles all types of heavy passenger aircraft, and is quite busy because of military bases in the area. |

When I want the opinion of an uneducated, semi-literate idiot, I'll let you know. I flew into Savannah recently, and have done so about a half dozen times. It's a dinky airport. Savannah, though, is a very nice city. Ohhhh, now I understand what you are looking for in a city. A city with really big airport buildings. I thought you meant an airport that was serviced on a regular basis by large planes. Savannah can handle and has regular service by carriers using 727 etc, but the airport building themselves are not as big as Atlanta, Chicago or NYC. You really do have unique requirements for places to live. How big is the airport in Costa Rica? |

The major airlines are crappy enough...their "partners" are far worse. United Express, operated by Mesa Airlines US Airways Express Delta, via "Freedom" Airlines AirTran, from the wonderful folks who brought you ValuJet Now, there are a couple of mainstays sprinkled about, but the majority of the schedules indicate Savannah is a minor regional airport, just as I described it. As for the rest of your schitty opinion, well, you deserve the usual...go foch yourself. |
