Jewish Heritage Patch

Tonight we earned our Jewish Heritage patch and celebrated Tu B'shvat -the New Year for the trees. We had a fruit seder, learned a little about Israel, listened to music, and closed with poetry by Shel Silverstein. Did I mention that we ate fruit?

The Upshaws of County Line - Photo Exhibit

We earned our African American Heritage patch tonight and had an incredible opportunity to meet and talk with Mr. Richard Orton (photographer) and Mr. Marion Upshaw about the photo exhibit the Upshaws of County Line.

Our questions?

Did you have running water?

Did you have to help out your brothers and sisters?

We owe a big thanks to SFA's East Texas Research Center for organizing this wonderful event for us and the Cole Art Center @ The Old Opera House for making us welcome :)
