I’m from Knox and fully agree! Everyone always asks why I drive home. And my husband always bitches when I want to take a cheaper flight out of Dulles. I’m so used to driving everywhere because flying is so expensive from TYS that an extra 30 minutes to get to the airport doesn’t phase me lol

My husband went down a week after me for Christmas and I had him fly to BNA instead of TYS for a $300 savings. I think he understands the reason I’m so willing to go an extra 30 minutes for a cheaper flight now lol

I like to shit on the time it takes to get from Dulles to the city (example: Rosslyn to Largo is quicker than Rosslyn to Dulles, even with significantly more stops going to Largo and three lines of congestion). But you show a great contrast - it took me 90 min to get from Shirlington to the South Capitol Street exit on 395 this weekend. I can’t imagine what a drive from Dulles would have taken.

I am almost certain this is the same guy who was sleeping under my building's covered (but open) parking area. Def a short young guy, but his hair adds a few inches? He actually came across "friendly" to me but then followed me to my car asking for cash - literally hand on my door and super intimidating. I told him I'd get cash and come back and he backed off but one of the only times I've actually been scared living here.
