Had a chance meeting this morning with a talented 21st century scrivener (scribe) in an 18th century coffee shop in Annapolis while sipping a hot chai-tea latte. Times have changed. No such thing as chai-tea latte for this town crier in the 18th century. Puddle water sipped from a saucer – not a cup – yes! Latte? No! Anyway, while perusing some reading material for an upcoming event I encountered Cory Bordonaro, Editorial Assistant at “Southern Living” magazine, and a couple of her friends; Jennifer Wilmore and Kristen Straw. Rarely ever passing up an opportunity to extol the virtures of one of the cities I’m commissioned to represent as an official town crier I expounded on the historic legacy of Annapolis. They were most gracious in listening to my 18th century stories before continuing their journey though the City of Anne. I wish them well.
