Arlington

Because of my job I find myself in Arlington, VA for training every now and then. Coming from typical suburbia I must say that I have to really appreciate this city. Everything is is walking distance and the public transportation system is the best. It helps that the Metro runs almost directly down the middle of the city and there are convenient Metro bus stops everywhere.

I love this video that pretty much covers all of the nuances of this city.

Beached Barge at Virginia Beach, VA (Sandbridge)



This big bad boy broke away from it's tug during the recent nor'easter and floated to the beach, within 100 yards of a fishing pier.

There are few article on iReport (CNN) as well as Flickr and the like. Here is the local papers take on it:
