1st Friday -- VA

As this month's 1st Friday falls on July 4th, the site of the meeting has been shifted to John and Kathi's Fabulous Bungalow. For maximum fun on our Country's birthday, aim to arrive around noon. The WSFA meeting will be held around 7:00pm.

By car:

FROM WASHINGTON

Take Route 50/Arlington Boulevard (easy to access from the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge, more complicated access from the GW Parkway) west for a number of miles. After passing the exit for Carlin Springs Road, take your next right at the light on Manchester Street. Go up Manchester Street three blocks (four, if you count the Route 50 service road) and take a left on 3rd Street North. We're halfway up the block on the right.

FROM THE VIRGINIA BELTWAY

Take Route 50 east (toward Washington) for a number of miles. Continue past the Seven Corners interchange and mall. Your third light after Seven Corners (at the bottom of a hill) will be Manchester Street. Take a left on Manchester and go up Manchester Street three blocks (four, if you count the Route 50 service road). Take a left on 3rd Street North. We're halfway up the block on the right.

For those wise in the ways of Virginia roads, there are also tricky, backroads routes from Interstate 66 and Wilson Boulevard.

By subway:

Go south from the East Falls Church Metro station (on the Orange line). You will immediately see the W&OD trail. Head east on the trail about one mile to Wilson Boulevard (which passes over the trail on a bridge). Almost immediately to the west of the trail is Manchester Street. Go south on Manchester, left on 4th Road, left on Montague Street, then left on 3rd Street North. We're halfway up the block on the left.

It's about 30 minutes on foot or 10 minutes by bike from the Metro station.

People arrive from 8:30 to 9:00 pm. The meeting itself lasts from about 9:15 until 9:45. The rest of the evening is spent socializing, and consuming the provided refreshments. The last people drift away between midnight and 1:00 am.

By car:

From the Beltway, take the Kenilworth Avenue exit, exit 23, North. At the first light (Crescent Road) turn right. Take the second left, onto Lastner Lane. At crest of hill, turn left onto Julian Court.

By subway:

Exit the Greenbelt Metro station (on the Green line) through the front. (Not through the back tunnel as you would to get to the Ginters'.) You'll find yourself in an enormous parking lot. Be sure to turn left as you exit the station, rather than trying to cut through the parking lot. Turn left on Cherrywood Lane. Turn right on Kenilworth Avenue. Turn left on Crescent Road. Take the second left, onto Lastner Lane. At crest of hill, turn left onto Julian Court.

It's about 40 minutes on foot or 15 minutes by bike from the Metro station. (Bikes are allowed on Metro after 7 pm. Permits are no longer required.) The last train leaves Greenbelt at 2:30 am on Friday night/Saturday morning.

By bus:

The R12, T16, and T17 buses come within a third of a mile. They leave from Deanwood and New Carrollton on the Orange Line, and from College Park and Greenbelt on the Green Line. Go to http://www.wmata.com/ and put 102 JULIAN CT. in the "Travel To" field for more details. It's not possible to return by bus, but someone will be willing to drive you back to Metro.
