Remembering Birds
By Sherman Shifflett After a recent article about birds in CvilleBuzz, I started thinking about the birds I saw as a kid and how many of those species have become scarce. My family left Covesville in 1957, and I don't think I have seen a Baltimore Oriole since then. I remember a sycamore tree near our bus stop and I used to see the orioles in that tree.

The smell of new denim jeans, for one. Today, it’s next to impossible to find a pair of jeans that hasn’t been stonewashed, ripped into shreds and put through the wringer before they even hit the shelves. They … [Read more...]
The Ivy Inn
Charlottesville, Virginia, home of CvilleBuzz, had 225 restaurants at last count. That’s a lot of choices, but if I had special guests coming to town, price was no object and I wanted to make sure they dined at one of Charlottesville’s finest restaurants, I would take them to the Ivy Inn. Over the years, my wife Nancy and I have had many enjoyable meals at The Inn (mostly anniversaries … [Read more...]
