Showtime Out Of Town
By Andrea Menzies
I had a great time seeing music concerts out of town this weekend. It is official music venues outside of Virginia have bounced back better after the pandemic. A guy even bought me free french fries so my weekend went extra well. The last few times I went out locally con-artists tried to rob me constantly so I am a travel fan now.
By mistake I took a blue photo of myself and it ended up being cute. 
Buildings by the venue. 
Dark and scary show lights. 
Brooklyn Grilled Food nearby. 
Early Joan Jett tribute art. 
Local band stickers all around.

Travel Cancelled
By Andrea Menzies
I had to do a temporary cancel on travel by Amtrak train and car pooling to see concerts as an Icy Death Snow Blast slammed Virginia a second week. If you can’t drive the roads or take trains well it is what it is, and you just have to deal with it. It strengthens my resolve to ride bikes more in Spring as stormy ice from excessive use of gas cars is blamed by scientists as a major cause of global warming by this good article “Why We Still Have Brutal Cold Snaps” by CNN. https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/15/climate/why-extreme-cold-during-global-warming/index.html

Top Teacher Photos of the Month
By Andrea Menzies
Here are my Top 10 Teacher Photos Of The Month. I have included a filter free photo of myself. I am still employed as a teacher, and I love how it uses my fully complete University degree from Loyola University New Orleans to help students daily. Heaven knows the huge amounts I owe in student loans verifies how long I have been to school.

By Andrea Menzies
Happy New Year’s Eve To All! Here are some bike meet up park lunch photos for New Year’s Eve! Downtown in this area has been way too wild and violent for night events lately. I am just doing lunchtime meetings and BBQ for a while on weekends.

Park Day
Thanks to the park fitness club for not being mad at me today after I was late. I was sick, but felt better by later in the day. I was feeling better, but got bad symptoms again that night. This flu season no one smells like roses.
