 I was told by my  Cousin Ida Kay that my South Carolina Gullah great-grandmother Mary  would say to her grandchildren,  "Bring me a cool glass of water, and  I'll tell you a story."  She had plenty of stories to tell.    I follow in her spoken word tradition - -  A tradition that has been in the making for more   than 500 years - -

Call me if you have a cool  glass of spring water.
