For future reference, Kenwood isn't easily reached by transit, unless you want to walk from the Bethesda metro. It's about a mile and a half on the crescent trail, I did it two weekends ago along with hundreds of my closest friends and neighbors. I grew up a half mile from those trees, and it used to be a very pleasant and quiet viewing experience...now it's a zoo.
