31. Hmm. It's a Silver Spring party.

I'm on University near Sligo Creek. Technically I think Forest Glen Metro is closest but Wheaton is the easier walk, especially at night.

I was just down at that Safeway, about 2 months ago. The hearings for the various zoning and land-use boards are down the block and I was working on a project as a community activist to prevent construction of a dangerous commercial driveway up in Takoma.

It looks like such a nice neighborhood, I'm disheartened to hear that they have those kinds of problems.
