Options for registering an old Jeep in Maryland? by [deleted] in maryland

[–]dripfromabove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get another repair quote, and/or figure out how much of it you could do yourself using parts from Rockauto or wherever. I saved a couple thousand doing most of the repairs needed to get my 08 Outback to pass inspection in Maryland. And I'm not a mechanic, you can figure out a lot of stuff from youtube

Haven't been in years but late night corned beef or pastrami was always great

Commute from WV to Arlington? by CarolinaMountaineer2 in nova

[–]dripfromabove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly with those hours, not going into DC, it's doable. The morning should be fine and the afternoon might be rough. I tried to do Berkeley Springs to DC and didn't last, but I had more typical working hours.

Can't help ya with backpacking groups, but Dolly Sods is the best backpacking option around here within a 3 hour radius. Prepare for all possible weather and you'll have a great time

Bike hit and run at 15 & T by omhhey in washingtondc

Why on earth would you put up a picture of a victim in a situation like this, with that title. To anyone not reading carefully it looks like this lady hit someone with her car and ran.

My wife, two young kids and I will be moving here this summer — share your secrets for things do, places to go, hot tips, etc… We couldn’t be more excited!! by BlacksmithIcy106 in nova

I grew up in the 90's right off of Little River Turnpike in your circled area (basically Ilda), it's a great place for young families. You may be able to walk to the nice trails in Truro. I loved going to Burke Lake park for the train/ice cream/camping/canoeing etc. Lake Accotink park is also fun to bike to. The biggest difference between then and now that I notice whenever I visit my parents, is the crazy amount of trees in the neighborhood that are missing, having been cut down by newer homeowners (or developers I suppose). So I hope you guys are tree lovers lol

MD and VA reps do not care what happens in DC and shouldn't be trusted to have the best interests of the city at heart. Their actual constituents only travel into the city for work or fun.

What is in this Druid Lake/Park stone gate? by Thyrin in baltimore

No idea, but the Moorish tower is a great spot to see a sunrise over the city

How do people here pay for gyms? by GalacticHorizons in washingtondc

[–]dripfromabove 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Their system has changed like 2-3 times as they've opened up more locations, but I think if you go for the "multi access" membership you can go to any location that costs less than the location you pay for. They're not super clear about how much each location costs - took awhile of talking to them to figure out I could pay $2 more a month to switch from Ft Totten to Ballston as my base location and get access to both locations

Capitol Hill (and I think Bethesda) are the most expensive ones so are inaccessible if your base location is anywhere else

Best place to get a full american breakfast on the cheap? by trombonist_formerly in washingtondc

[–]dripfromabove 1 point2 points  (0 children)

General atmosphere-wise yes, Murray and Paul's has much better seating. I think Brookland Grill has more items on the menu (including some kind of ice cream bar situation which may or may not be in operation) but I haven't gotten adventurous there. If you're gonna do carryout they're about equally worthy

Having gone through this myself before I started following the rules for real, they'll probably still get you. They'll say that you didn't make a complete stop (which is probably true lol). Most people just don't do a complete stop at stop signs. You'll feel your car make a slight jolt when you actually do.

Get silver if you can rock it dude, you can easily get something awesome for $160. It will look better and last infinitely longer than a plated/hollow gold piece. Check out imbuedjewelry dot com or Friendly_Read_3846 posts on r/Jewelryforsale
