The BAit shop changed into a cozy little coffe shop do get it onto LEGO Ideas :)
--------------------
Bill Harper ran a quaint bait and boat rental shop out of an old, weather-worn shack at East Pier No. 5. The shack, once painted a faded red and grey, had seen countless seasons of sun, salt, and storms—each weathered mark telling its own story of the years Bill served his community. By 2016 or 2017, Bill decided to retire from the bait business, but he couldn’t bring himself to leave the shack he had called home for so long.
Tucked inside, the downstairs featured a snug little kitchen with just enough room for a stove, a sink, and a tiny table where Bill still enjoyed his morning coffee. Upstairs, in his cozy living space, shelves were filled with vinyl records and five well-loved guitars, each one ready to play a tune on a quiet evening.
When Bill heard that his cousin Lucy dreamed of opening a coffee shop, he saw the perfect opportunity to breathe new life into the old shack while still holding onto the memories he cherished. With a heart full of warmth and nostalgia, he offered Lucy the space where he’d spent so many years running his bait shop. Lucy, with her creative flair, embraced the chance to infuse the place with her own personality. She painted over the drab grey with a soft, faded pink, creating a charming, welcoming haven. The dark red, a beloved remnant of Bill’s past, was left untouched, preserving the heart of the old bait shop. Lucy also gave the coffee shop area a rich, inviting brown, echoing the warmth of her coffee brews, while Bill added extra windows to flood the space with natural light.
Lucy named her coffee shopLucy’s Shackedelic Coffee Brews, a fun, lively name that reflected both her vision and the shack’s history. She chose vibrant yellow as her signature color, and her sunny yellow mugs quickly became as iconic as the red cups Bill once used for bait. The cozy shop had just enough room for a gleaming espresso machine and Lucy’s array of special blends, which filled the air with the delightful aroma of freshly brewed coffee.
Her menu was full of creative twists on classic favorites. There was the “Pier-Side Frappe,” an iced coffee with a hint of sea salt and caramel, and the “Dockside Dream,” a velvety espresso with vanilla cream and cinnamon. But it was the “Shackedelic Swirl” that really stole the show—a layered creation of cold brew, coconut milk, and chocolate, always Instagram-worthy before the first sip.
Outside, Lucy turned the pier into a welcoming retreat with crisp white furniture and bright yellow umbrellas offering shade. She even added a vending machine where people could grab iced coffee when the shop was closed, ensuring Lucy’s brews were always within reach.
What few people realize is that Bill still lives in the shack. Though he handed the shop over to Lucy, Bill never left. His kitchen remains downstairs, where he sometimes helps Lucy when things get busy, and upstairs is still his private retreat. After a busy morning helping out, Bill often retreats to his cozy living space, strumming one of his guitars or listening to his vinyl collection. The shack may have transformed into a vibrant coffee shop, but for Bill, it’s still the place he calls home.
One sunny afternoon, Mr. Benson, an old regular, strolled by the pier and smiled as he took in the sight of the new shop. “Well, if it isn’t Lucy’s place,” he said, leaning on the counter. “Never thought I’d see the old shack turned into something like this. Your coffee’s got the whole pier talking.”
Lucy handed him a steaming yellow mug. “Thanks, Mr. Benson. It’s been great seeing so many familiar faces. I hope you enjoy the coffee.” Mr. Benson took a sip and nodded. “It’s like a little piece of the past with a fresh twist. Bill’s old place never looked better.”
Lucy smiled as she watched Mr. Benson head off to his favorite spot by the water. The transformation of the shack wasn’t just a new business venture—it was a tribute to the past and a bright promise for the future. As the sun set over the pier, casting a golden glow over the yellow umbrellas and cozy white furniture, Lucy’s Shackedelic Coffee Brews buzzed with life, filled with laughter and the comforting aroma of coffee. It was more than just a new chapter; it was a continuation of a beloved story, with Bill still at the heart of it all.

It does not have an identity, not anymore, shadow has covered It's body making It unrecognizable, but It's victims have said otherwise... they say just before the dark deed was performed they saw a flicker of the boy they once knew and tormented, He looked almost scared like He was not in control, that was the last thing those people saw...
She would visit from time to time with her vivacious
desert labia spreading their color and joy like cacti blooming..
Today the actors are very dedicated and passionate about their role and they get into the skin of their offered character. We cannot believe that the transformation is so real. Sometimes the celebrities had to put on a lot of weight for their film and right after that their other film demands another transformation which might be so difficult for them.

Project Title: Mask Transformations
School:Abigail Vare Elementary
Teaching Artist: Ellissa Collier
Site Contact: Dana Jenkins, Art Teacher
Age/Grade: 8th grade
Project Description:
Eighth grade students at Abigail Vare Elementary School spent several weeks with artist in residence, Ellissa Collier, to create an interdisciplinary art piece combining elements of geometry and traditional African fine crafts. Students explored pattern in traditional African mask-making and fine crafts, learned basic sewing techniques and then created a 2-dimensional fabric wall hanging utilizing decorative patterns, symbols and geometric shapes. The students also developed an awareness of mathematical forms including congruence, similar shapes, scale, ratio, proportion and symmetry.

Richmond's statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee can be removed under the governor's order. The statue, which stands 60 feet high, is the only Confederate statue still standing on the city's Monument Avenue after others were toppled by protesters or removed by the city. The statue of Lee on horseback was erected in 1890 in the former capital of the Confederacy. The statue itself is 21 feet high, on a pedestal almost twice as tall. The Lee statue has taken on a new life as an icon of resistance and transformation.
