My Favorite Summer Activity: Going to the beach! When I was growing up I lived at the beach and loved going there every day during the summer. Although I don't live at the beach anymore, I still love going outside and spending time by any body of water!
Ms. Jessi has been working at Belle Meade Plantation for over two years! She loves history, and even has a degree in history from Virginia Tech. In fact, she loves history so much she is back in school at MTSU working on her Master's degree! |
