Snyder is leaving Maryland for Virginia

Everyone around here was wondering who would buy that monstrosity, now we know.
I grew up less than 5 minutes away from there. I had no idea that there was a mansion in that area. I wonder if it floods when the Potomac River rises from heavy rains. I recall seeing a piece of a railroad track on that side of the road, just about near the entrance to that area, when I was a kid. There was some kind of small overhead cover. Maybe that was part on an old railroad siding.
At least one large red fox with little foxes roams that general area. That thing killed every squirrel, chipmunks, and other creatures that had been seen at my family's house. Most of those houses were built on two lots. Many were sold, torn down and turned into two houses, including ours.
The closest grocery store is probably the smallest Safeway store you will see in the DC area. There was originally an Acme Supermarket in the adjacent shopping center, which is now a Rite-Aid.
To get to more shopping nearby, Snyder's servants will drive through Gum Springs, an historic black neighborhood largely built by a former slave of George Washington.
