I used to think of the Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport as one of the greatest hidden gems in the Charlottesville area. Certainly, people were aware of the airport, but so many that I spoke with, chose to drive to Richmond or D.C. for their flights. Well, it seems that Charlottesville has [...]

I remember reading the results of a poll that was conducted among Charlottesville residents. The poll asked, "What is your favorite past time?" The number one answer: Reading. I always liked that. I like living in a community that likes to spend its time reading.
Today marks the beginning of Charlottesville's [...]

Gardening has always been a passion of mine.
My parents always took great pride in their yard; my mother invested heart and soul into her garden. Weekends were inevitably spent doing something to our family's sanctuary we called home.
Home was an attractive, two-story Dutch Colonial, sited on 1/3 of [...]

I am so loving this fine morning. The sky is clear, the air is warm, my coffee is delicious, and the birds are singing their hearts out. Spring is trying to arrive.
I'm showing property this morning to a young man who has recently moved from California. California people are used [...]

Mono Loco's restaurant, located on Water Street at Second Street, NW, has been a favorite of ours since they opened in 1996. With so many opportunities for great dining Downtown, we hadn't enjoyed this funky, little spot for several years. I had heard it was under new ownership (another Capshaw [...]

Keeping up with growth issues in the Charlottesville area is a challenge. When I arrived in Charlottesville 24 years ago, the face of this place was quite different. To a then-20-something professional in the arts field, the "big city" of Richmond at my back, my first thoughts were, "how pedestrian [...]

We had the privilege of attending a preview at Second Street Gallery last night, a retrospective of the work by Anne Slaughter. I encourage everyone to find the time over the next two months to visit this remarkable show. It encompasses work of forty years, a body of work [...]

Have you noticed? Every time you turn around, someone else is writing about Charlottesville . It’s a great place to raise kids, it’s one of the best places to retire, it’s among the best towns in the country to raise an “outdoor family”... Well, it is a great place to [...]

This is my cuppa of choice....
It's a capaccino of sorts. I brew my coffee in stovetop coffee maker. The large spoonful of raw sugar goes in first. I add my hot coffee and stir. I add about 4 ounces of milk to my hand-manipulated frother, pump 'til [...]
