This used to be my favorite theater

Can’t remember what it is now, if anything.

Not really sure why I liked the Lyons Avenue Cinema. It’s not like it was a convenient location for me. Maybe I just had good luck with the movies I saw there.

A little farther north, my wife learned to drive a standard transmission almost 25 years ago in the parking lot of the then-thriving Newport multiplex. That, too, closed long ago.
