Tim Field, police Commander, 20-plus years: "Describe Herndon? There's a small town feel inside a large town. I grew up on Grant Street and lived in Herndon until I was 16. The place I wanted to live then was Reston. It was new, modern, and all the cool kids lived there. Later in life, after school and marriage, I lived there, in Reston with my family. Thought I'd be there forever. Then an opportunity came, this house on the market. Here in the Town of Herndon, I can fly my American flag every day; nobody can tell me otherwise. I'm two minutes to the W & OD Trail. Twenty minutes to work. Ten minutes to Dulles Airport. I can exercise. I can work. I can travel. And at the end of the day, I can look forward to coming home to the town. Sit'n on my porch; sip'n lemonade, or whatever is within the legal limits. Herndon is home."
