ViVa Vienna Wrap-Up
Another ViVa Vienna is in the books. Families, kids, seniors - everyone raced to a central area in Vienna where they could eat, shop, hang out, walk, etc. Well, it's over. Jane and Maud give us three days a year. That's it folks. While other communities across Fairfax County get outdoor fair year round, we get three days. Tomorrow is back to normal. Get back in your car and go to your favorite Vienna strip mall. When you are done from another robotic day of Vienna errands (while stuck in traffic that Maud assures us has no fix), please go home. That is community building Maud and Jane style. Don't frown, you get three more days in 2008! Plus for the next year you can buy rock candy at the Freeman Store and use the lavatory at the new Town Green. Isn't that enough economic vitality for you?
Comments
No one ever thinks that things CAN be different. We accept what Mother Maud hands us. We eat it up quickly and furiously since it comes by only every so often.
WE CAN HAVE A TOWN CENTER HERE IN VIENNA TO WALK AROUND AND SHOP AND EAT.
Just ask the Marco Polo Restaurant what they want to build.

Discussion with a person who had visited the Viva Vienna affair:
What did you think of the Town Green?
Response: Blank stare.
The new park they built downtown.
Response: I used the bathroom, they have a one-holer. But there is no parking.
End of conversation about Town Green.

Gang-type activity at ViVa Vienna?
I heard there was some sort of gang-type activity one evening at the Vienna event. Can anyone substantiate that? 7th-8th graders with weapons intimidating/chasing participants?
Truth or exagerrated paranoia?
