Luckily for me, the Orange line maintenance is only
Saturday and Sunday.  I'm only planning on using Metro
tonight (even though the cost of parking at New
Carollton plus fares is about $10, but missing
tonight's rush hour traffic might be worth it).  The
last time I was on Metro I had gone to a Nationals
game and the Orange line closed past Cheverly at 10 PM
and we had to take shuttle buses to New Carollton.
The extra half hour they mentioned was no
exaggeration.
