Nellysford
Nelson County, Virginia

Way back in April 2007 we did a story named Shoefiti (Issue#25) about the famous tennis shoes hanging on a power line over Route 151 just south of Nellysford. We did a web update here in late April 2007 about other hanging shoes. Last Friday those widely talked about 151 shoes finally dropped! We literally got this shot about 60 seconds before a lady living nearby walked into the highway and took the shoes away!

Chris Barksdale alerted us Friday on our Nelson Mag Facebook Wall:

” BREAKING NEWS IN NELLYSFORD…. This morning between 11 & 12:00 the tennis shoes on the electric line across Rt 151 came down. How long did those shoe laces last ?”

A long time Chris, for sure!

The shoes hanging on the power line back in March of 2007. They finally dropped this past week!

The story finally has an ending!

PEP presents Our American Ann Sisters at the Hamner

0

Event Image
Meet the Peabody Sisters from the 19th Century. You probably haven’t heard of them. That’s the problem.

This original performance by Performers Exchange Project uses the story of Elizabeth, Mary and Sophia Peabody – remarkable female intellectuals and artists living in the 19th century – as a springboard for a vaudevillian fantasia on being a woman, an artist, an intellectual, and an American.

The original production of Our American Ann Sisters was developed in cooperation with Live Arts in Charlottesville. It premiered there in December 2009. Directed by Martha Mendenhall, Written by Jennifer Hoyt Tidwell, Performed by Sian Richards, Doreen Bechtol, Jennifer Hoyt Tidwell, Kay Ferguson and Jude Silveira.

Thursday & Friday, March 25 & 26 at 7:30 p.m.
Admission $10.
Reservations advised, 434 361 1999
