It’s absolutely permissible to come without a definite RSVP. In the interest of full disclosure, the train ride is probably more than an hour; it’s about 40 minutes from Baltimore to Greenbelt, then another 30 on the Metro, plus transfer time, so likely 1.5 hours total.
I ended up deciding against it. By way of explanation: I worked it out and determined that 1-2 hours with you guys would actually cost me ~5 hours with close friends that I don’t see often, plus a missed convention event that I was looking forward to. The trade didn’t seem worth it.

You should go anyway though!

I do thank you for the welcome anyway, though.
That’s fair! Maybe if you visit the actual capital sometime, it would make more sense to come.
