Celebrating the Lowcountry Weekly Gang (Volume One)

By Debbi Covington�

20 MarkDebbiJeff If a picture is worth a thousand words, then 20 pictures has to be a 20 MargDebbiHabitat volume. Y'all know that I've been writing a food column for Lowcountry Weekly since 2005. What you probably didn't know is that I'm also the unofficial �every time we get together� photographer and keeper of the scrapbooks. Yep. I'm that person who shoves her iPhone into the hands of the most available body and sweetly asks, �will you please take a picture of us?' When it comes to photos, I have no shame.

In the beginning, everyone would fuss and grumble about having to pose � until they started requesting copies. Over the years, we've attended lots of local events, festivals and fund-raisers; wine tastings, book signings and costume parties; judged bbq cook offs and reviewed restaurants. I literally have thousands of pictures of our Lowcountry Weekly family. Instead of celebrating the 20^thanniversary of our beloved LCW at a grand soiree, we're commemorating this special milestone with a trip down memory lane. Captured in some of our most professional and some unprofessional moments, this is us. When this wretched pandemic has passed, the Lowcountry Weekly Gang will ride again! I've already ordered a set of new photo albums for Volume II. From all of us, to all of you, thank you for reading Lowcountry Weekly.
