Reupholstery and Drapery Work Room near Reston and Herndon  Reupholstery and window treatments in Reston and Herndon     John: I need to get a sofa recovered and my draperies were installed in 1989. Do you know any good place near Reston and Herndon that can do reupholstery and custom window treatments? Steve: John, you should check out  The Upholstery Shop in downtown Herndon. It is located on Elden street in the heart of old town  across the street from the Ice House restaurant and next to Jimmy's Old Town Tavern. They have a huge fabric selection in stock at great price points, and  both a drapery  and upholstery workroom. To the best of my knowledge, they are the only shop in either Reston or Herndon...certainly they offer the most complete selection of services: Re-upholstery, wind...

Don't fail your children. Be responsible. Make sure they can swim really cool looking. Tom: I have never been to a swim team practice and neither has my boy Marvin. What can I expect when he starts swimming with the Chantilly Highlands Dolphins? Steve the Answerman: First thing Tom, always have Marvin in his suit when he leaves the house whether you are going to a meet or practice. This will save you a lot of trouble. Nothing is more irritating than getting to an away meet and finding no suit in the swim bag. We once went to meet at Penn State, arriving at 9:00 PM; discovered no suit(we took our daughter's guarantee that there was a suit in the bag. "What could we possibly be thinking to even ask her such a question. What did we think she was? A slacker idiot?") for a 7:00 AM warm up. ...

Last night was the kick-off of the annual Herndon Festival in Herndon, Virginia. Although the evening started out with a thunderstorm, all was not lost as the clouds, thunder and lightning made it through by about 6:00 pm.   It is a great way to reconnect with your community through a good, old fashioned family festival. Rides, games, prizes, vendors, food, entertainment...what more could you want? There are three stages with entertainment, Fireworks on Thursday night (if you heard banging last night, now you know what it was) and Saturday night, 10K and 5K races and much, much more! In past years I have found very easy to park at Herndon High School and take the shuttle to the festival. The parking in downtown Herndon can be fairly limited, so I recommend this option. There is also shu...

A beautiful spring morning ... the perfect time to take pictures around my home.  Enjoy! The cherry tree in front of my house is heavy with fruit this year ... the birds usually eat most of them before they ripen. Wonder why they left them alone this year? Beautiful, shiny, plump cherries ... unfortunately, I don't know if they're edible ... This gorgeous plant is on my front porch ... but I can't remember what it is! My valiant little maple tree, broken by the record snowfall earlier this year, is trying to make a comeback. I don't have the heart to dig it up ... Hurry up and ripen! Cherokee Purple ... can't wait!

Chantilly Highlands Dolphins Swim Team Jason: Help. I need your help. I was supposed to sign my boy Melvin up for the Chantilly Highlands Dolphins swim team in April.     My wife gave me a MapQuest to the community center and a bunch of  cash in order to register him. I don’t know how it happened but somehow my neighbor Ted and I ended up at Ruby Tuesdays eating chili & wings and consuming adult beverages. The first time I looked at my watch it was 10:45 pm, my cash and wings were finished, the community center was dark and my goose is cooked. Can you help me and does my wife have to know? Steve the Answerman: Be at peace Jason. If this was any other sport, you would be toast. We at the swim team are a mellow and understanding group and have made allowances for people in your circumstan...
