Washington Grove Maryland, in the DC is a rare American suburb where (some) streets are free from cars and reserved only for humans (and other animals) It has many other desirable amenities including
1. A park with a playground,
2. A forest trail,
3. A lake (swim at your own risk),
4. A church,
5. A rail line to watch trains.
Thankfully, it is also relatively well connected with fast, relatively, frequent, and reliable public transportation to most major amenities, including the grocery store, the nearest major city, and the nearest main street.
About a week before this video was published, I traveled to Washington Grove and learned (and filmed) it all.
