Enjoy your visit! If you are at the Van Dorn Street Alexandria location you're a bit Southwest. Capitol City Brewing Company is a solid brewpub and Rustico is a great gastropub reasonably nearby. If you're new to the area, I-395 is a MAJOR morning commute corridor. We're up-river from there, past the black helicopter nest.

Cheers, RickG

Intercourse, PA!

Can't beat that. Too funny, Bev.

My favorite street names...

Powhite and Pohick.

Yes, they really exist in VA.

Yes it is. We have some photos at the roadsign at the edge of town. One side has "Fucking" the other has "Fucking" with the red "not" line through it.
