This morning I received phone calls, emails and text messages from friends and former backpack journalist students. I so appreciate your concerns and love and support. It has been a bit stressful. I ended up at the MUSC emergency room with a dental issue. Now on antibiotics and working through to heal.
I so appreciate the support A Backpack Journalist received over the years from Mayor Joe Riley and Mayor John Tecklenberg and his wife Sandy, The city of Charleston Arts/Cultural Affairs, plus Hendrick Automotive Group, the SC Ports Authority, The Charleston RiverDogs, The Citadel and donations/paying from so many parents. The book reflects some of our experiences and it is on line at Amazon books!
And yes, I am a Grandmother and to those who also commented: “I did not know you were that old…” Alas, age is only in the eyes of others, not so!…
