Washington Metro Nov. 14–15: shuttles for College Park and Greenbelt ReedDusdennis 5 hours ago If you’re visiting the Washington, D.C. area Nov. 14–15, Green Line trains from D.C. will end at Hyattsville Crossing. For the University of Maryland, use the free local shuttle from there to College Park–U of Md. For Greenbelt, there’s also a free express shuttle from Hyattsville Crossing. The express skips College Park.

The Silver Line still serves Dulles both days. WMATA says to expect 20 minutes between Silver Line trains during the weekend track work. If you’re taking the Blue Line from Reagan National, trains will end at Foggy Bottom–GWU.

First Visit to new Blind Creek TJTrippe Yesterday at 05:59 PM The parking lot is nice. We arrived by 930 on a weekend and had a wide selection of parking spaces.
The beach is the same as before construction.
The showers are at the entry to the vegetation path and about 50 feet before a sign (facing the beach) that says no nudity beyond this point.

At 1130, we made the first trek to the potties. THE LOT WAS FULL AND PEOPLE WERE MAKING SPACES ALONG CURBS.
It is a good walk near the entrance to parking lot. The potty was clean but looked like the single urinal is cracked already.

We left around 130pm, still full with people picturing like vultures for our spot.

Cars were parked along A1A as they were years ago. The no parking signs taken away.

They should have made it bigger with far more spots, with the potties closer to the beach, and the showers in the nude zone.

The parking spots are generous and they could have squeezed more spots with less grass, sidewalks and curbs.

I’m sure it will be closed in the next decade for the doubling construction project.

Chicago museum trips by CTA bus, including the evening ride back ReedDusdennis 11/09/2026 07:20 AM If you’re visiting the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry or the Obama Presidential Center from downtown Chicago, CTA’s #10 express serves both year-round, including weekends. It runs from North Michigan Avenue through the Loop. The CTA route page lists the last northbound #10 at 6:10 p.m. on weekdays and 6 p.m. on weekends. For a later return, check the #6 Jackson Park Express. It also serves both destinations and runs substantially later, but check the stop and departure for your date.

Unity Car Rental S&S 11/08/2026 11:13 PM Does anyone have any information about Michael & Unity Car rental? Has anyone rented from him recently? I heard he may have retired. Haven’t heard anything since a customer wrote a scathing review on another site. Have rented from him for years and have been very happy with his service.
