A lot has changed

I was driving to Dulles Airport in 1986 and as I got closer to the airport on the access road, I remember seeing nothing but farmland.  Cows and chickens, even some pigs were roaming the area - not in the roads, mind you but on farms.  Who would ever think that this area would eventually be flooded with condos?  I never did.  Then again, I was only 7 and a condo was a place where your grandparents lived in Miami Beach playing cards and sitting outside making small talk about absolutely nothing while eating a turkey and pastrami sandwich on rye bread with a Kosher Dill pickle from the neighborhood deli…but I digress.  Reston condos as well as Arlington condos have definitely helped the living situation for many in the Virginia area.
