Manchester’s Dogtown Dish has a nice article on Oregon Hill resident Haleh Pedram’s upholstery business and her oyster-inspired pillows.

The RVA Environmental Film Festival has announced that the short film An Oyster’s-Eye View of the Virginia Oyster Shell Recycling Program is the winning entry of the 2018 RVA EFF Virginia Film Contest.
Be sure to make plans to attend this festival in February. Attendance is FREE!

Photo taken yesterday. Although work was done on broken water main this past week before the snow, it is still leaking.

P.S. Rain comes very late Monday into Tuesday

A few hours ago, a large bee hive in a tree on the 400 block of S. Laurel Street was reported on SeeClick Fix, the City government’s issues site. Hopefully it can be relocated if needed and not destroyed.
