The ladies of Country Place Senior Living made their way through downtown on Friday giving hugs to members of the media because Saturday was National Hug a Newsman Day. In addition to hugs, the ladies presented the staff of The Greenville Advocate with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Pictured are, from left to right, Alaina Norman, Andy Brown, Jonathan Bryant, Bobbie Terry, Marion Norman, Rebecca Reynolds and April Gregory. (Advocate Staff/Tracy Salter)
