The OVTC is ok depending on who is working. It felt like a used car lot the first time I was in there. This last time I stopped by I wasn't hassled and free to take my time. I have a close friend / BOTL that lives in Reisterstown, MD and the B&M by him had quite a nice selection. I may be stopping there when I visit.

I am free both of those weekends for the Herf. Once the weather gets warmer I have a small fenced yard and grill that needs to be taken advantage of.

The one in Fairfax you are talking about is probably John B. Hayes Tobacconist. That's a really good shop. Knowledgeable people and prices are reasonable.

Other than that, really not much cigar shops here worth mentioning here.

Cabaiguan_Juan works at an amazing shop in Bathesda, MD. A bit of a trek, but worth checking out if you are in the neighborhood. It's called Bethesda Tobacco.

Herf will be sometime January. Weekend of 17th or 24th. Not finalized yet.

There's enough of us in the Metro area, we can always get a small group together to smoke. Just need to decide where.
