So, I know it's not actually a big deal, but I thought it was pretty cool. A photo I took was used in the local paper yesterday! It's a photo of the football team and the state trophy during the
COTR parade. The
story in the
Demopolis Times is about the team trying to raise funds to buy their state championship rings. The way it happened is this: Justin is best good friends with Jeremy Smith, the sports editor. Jeremy was over at our house and looked through my pictures from the parade. When he saw the pic he said it would be a good one for one of his stories. You can see the actual picture in
this post I wrote about
COTR.
Of course, Justin couldn't resist teasing me about the credit under the picture. "Special to the Times" is what they put if you are someone who isn't on the paper's staff. Justin just kept saying I was special to the
Demopolis Times or that they called me special...silly boy.
