Groundhog Day (1993) - https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/groundhog_day
Grab your popcorn, pull up a chair at your favorite streaming device, and join me for four favorite films. All you need is a Zoom account and a couple of hours to watch and chat. You must have a Zoom account and be logged into that account to participate.
All movies are streamed with English closed captions on.
I will open the Zoom room half an hour before the movie starts. When I know everyone is there, I'll start the movie.
Folks are welcome to chat before the movie starts. During the movie, for best streaming quality, cameras and microphones are both muted (off) but the chat box will be available. Happy to extend the conversation for an hour following the screening, to allow for follow-up chatting and social conversation.

Join Bruce & Stephanie as we produce WHAT DO WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT?, by Richard Nelson, cast with UUCSS actors. Acclaimed as “the best example of zoom theatre I have watched,” TALK ABOUT? has also been called “the first powerful drama of the pandemic.” Nelson’s five family members (3 females, 2 males) talk with each other about their suspended lives, friends lost, and new ventures explored during the Covid shut down in this poignant drama. We are producing the hour-long play with three separate casts on 3 evenings so that 15 UUCSS members may play a role.

Flavor bombs are small additions to recipes that turn them from ok to memorable. Some you probably know, some are new, and some may seem totally counter-intuitive. This offering is two part. Part one is the delivery of a video sometime in January going through each bomb and ways to use it. On Monday, February 22nd at 8PM we'll do a zoom to talk about things that worked and things that didn't and your own ideas of flavor.

Explore the beauty of the natural world in the D.C./Metro area. We will drive to a local park/river/lake in the early afternoon to spend 2-3 hours in nature. You can choose to hike quickly, slowly, hike all of the trail or just part of it, or spend your time sitting by the water or in the woods writing, reading, sleeping, standing on your head, or staring at the trees.
