Vol. 2, Issue 4 April 2020 KEEPING YOU UP-TO-DATE MONTHLY WITH THE LATEST DEVELOPMENTS IN SHELBY COUNTY, TN i LoveShe l byCoun t y . com LETTER FROM THE EDITOR By Yvonne D. Nelson, Ph.D., CNC My March thought of the month was for us to understand the need to spend our time wisely. Boy, what a difference a month can make! A few weeks later, our time is no longer considered to be “our” time. As we sit sequestered in our homes, those of us lucky enough to have a home, we think back on all the freedoms we had become so accustomed to and ask ourselves, “What in the world happened?” Well, that is the million dollar question which leaves me and you only to ponder, what is the answer and how soon will it come? Let’s work that 20/20 vision to stay COVID-19 free. Please remember to follow us and to subscribe online at iLoveShelbyCounty.com.

It seems like it was yesterday when I didn’t hesitate to take a Heritage Tours trip to Birmingham and Selma, AL for the 50th Anniversary March commemorating Bloody Sunday... Fast Forward to March 1, 2020 WHEN IT WAS STILL SAFE TO TRAVEL... … and I didn’t hesitate to do it all over again, this time for the 55th Anniversary March commemorating Bloody Sunday. But there was something different about this trip and it wasn’t just because it took place just two weeks prior to the Coronavirus travel restrictions.
