Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Why is the right lane of the 250 bypass the de facto pick up line for Covenant school? 000
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 23/08/2026I may have a rep for complaining about things that happen at Greenleaf Park but I just caught a woman dumping her child's 💩 in my yard. There are public restrooms available at the park, but she thought my yard was a better spot. 120
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 15/08/2026AND we're back! Power finally back on over by Greenleaf Park. I'm going to go hug my AC. 040
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Pretty sure this delightful weather is brought to you by my husband's camping trip. I should send him out like that more often. 150

Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 30/07/2026Got to judge the county fair preserves this morning. Tasted some amazing pickles and preserves, but I really wish everyone I know that talks about canning would submit to the fair. So many submissions were the only one in their category. 0120
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Charlottesville, it's not too late to submit your home grown and home preserved goodies to the Albemarle County Fair! albemarlecountyfair.com/wp-content/u...albemarlecountyfair.com 000
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 28/07/2026Why is the city spraying pesticides at all, but particularly next to children's play areas at a public park near a wooded area home to birds and other animals? 441
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Whisper Hill tomatoes are officially in season to anyone that is interested @johnedwinmason.bsky.social 040
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 05/06/2026Throwing a wide net here: Charlottesville, I need some help with my kids sewing camp the week of June 22. Must have some sewing knowledge. Hit me up for more details. And yes, it pays for the 3 hours a day you'll be needed. 011
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 19/05/2026Visiting downtown Lancaster, PA and not only is there plenty of public seating, they have porch swings in front of the library! 190
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 24/04/2026Fourth time in a week I've been in a crosswalk only to have a car narrowly miss hitting me. I'm so tired of taking my life into my own hands by just trying to do things like walk from my car into the grocery store or walking my dog. 010
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 18/04/2026Another day, another adventure in trying to cross the street with my dog in the crosswalk and having a car narrowly avoiding hitting me. This time though, there were multiple witnesses. And when the dumbass came back to threaten me a second time? 192

Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 28/01/2026Watching the city dump snow into my backyard. WTF!?!? 140
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 28/01/2026Rose Hill Drive checking in this morning. This is a "main" route to a citywide school. Once again, plow trucks drove by with their blades up all afternoon when this was soft and then came back at 10 pm to actually plow once it had hardened again. 130
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Good morning from Rose Hill Drive at Greenleaf Park where crews have been working since last night to clear. 260
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 25/01/2026Watching a plow truck spin out on Rose Hill. That’s reassuring. 141
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 11/01/2026My then teenage daughter asked me to take her to see Dead & Co, which obviously, you cannot say no to. I paid more money for those tickets than I have ever paid for any concert and it was worth every penny. Good night Bobby and thank you. 020
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 09/12/2025Rose Hill Drive hasn't seen a city salt truck since last night. It's covered in snow and soon-to-be-if-not-already ice. I'd say chances of city schools opening tomorrow are slim. 250
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 21/11/2025You'd think a city school bus would stop for pedestrians (and their dogs) in a cross walk instead of speeding up and yet you'd be wrong. Thankfully, we did not begin to cross because we never trust drivers, but come on. A school bus SHOULD be stopping for pedestrians because it's the law. 040
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 03/10/2025Heads up Cville! They've changed traffic traffic pattern at Rigby Ave/250 has been changed with zero signage. It's a little confusing and I just avoided an accident. 140
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 26/09/2025Charlottesville, traffic out there is a whole new level of crazy. Be safe. Stay home. 020
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 16/09/2025Cosign this. Lisa leads with her heart. She absolutely has my vote. 061
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 02/09/2025Saw a monarch on the Joe Pye weed in my garden today. 170
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 13/08/2025Happy Back to School season. Otherwise known, as dodging cars that don't stop for pedestrians while walking my dog near a school season. 150
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 11/08/2025Garden update: the squirrels are starting to share tomatoes with us. Finally got a harvest! Hooray! 020

Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Last call for my pickle class this Saturday afternoon. We'll be making quick cucumber dill pickles as well as curried squash ones. 1:30-4, Saturday afternoon, $40/person. Everyone goes home with pickles and recipes! DM for more details. 010
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 16/07/2025Sharing this because while replacing the Dairy Road bridge is going to be a pain for those of us who live near it, traffic for the entire area looks like it might be affected by it in various degrees. www.dairyroadbridge.orgdairyroadbridge.orgDairy Road Bridge Replacement – City of Charlottesville 120
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 13/07/2025It’s pickle season! I’m offering TWO pickle classes this Saturday, July 19. At noon, it’s Kids Pickle! Ages 8 and up. We’ll make quick pickles and work on knife skills. $20. 110
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 28/05/2025Ended up behind a driver who did not understand how the traffic circle on Hydraulic works and it was painful. How do people still not understand this? 020
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 23/05/2025Just park wherever. Even with sidewalks, this town hates pedestrians and looks to endanger them at every chance. 050
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 27/04/2025This is happening this evening. Come out, having dinner, hear live music, all for an excellent cause. www.facebook.com/events/12271...facebook.comSin Barreras Fundraiser with Lua ProjectEvent in Charlottesville, VA by Sin Barreras VA and 3 others on Sunday, April 27 202510 posts in the discussion. 042
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 20/04/2025Unbothered, hydrated, happy, flourishing and in her lane. Or sofa as the case may be. 040
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 14/03/2025Have a Daisy break in your doom scrolling. She would really like a belly rub but she hates to bother you. 050
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 09/01/2025Watching city crews shovel sidewalks and then cross the street to dump the snow in my yard was something. 180
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 21/11/2024Coming soon to the Charlottesville Holiday Market. I’m delighted to send this out into the world. 1130
Becky @beckycalvert.bsky.social · 16/11/2024This is Daisy. She believes that everyone loves her, even if they don’t know it yet. 0543
