Sallie Douglas Dennison interview teacher appreciation week

When I started volunteering as an adult in the library at my old elementary school , I found out  a few of my teachers were still here.  Mrs. Dixon, and Mrs. Dennison both recognized me almost 20 years after I was in the class. Mrs Dixon remembered my name first and then Mrs. Dennison tried to put a face to the name. Once she made the connection she realized my picture was still in her classroom. 

Counting our Blessings

Thanksgiving is a holiday, when people gather with their families and friends and count their blessings, and I did just that. Our family came in from New York and we had a great time. Our final day together was spent at Universal Orlando and that is where my podcast is coming from. I would like to thank my sister, brother-in law, mother and our cousins for being my blessings.

Parking many cars as they arrive. Cooking and serving food and drinks. Selling tickets and t-shirts. The event is lots of fun and outdoors. Hundreds of people come each year. It is very handicapped accessible. We also have many visitors with intellectual disabilities. After the event the group organizes a parade of cars down the streets to visit veteran's nursing homes.
