Roof top view of the Holy City

Charleston, SC   

We have so few tall buildings on the lower peninsula it is always a treat to get a bird's eye view. This afternoon I helped take 32 students interested in exploring health careers up to the top of Roper Hospital to see the helicopter land and talk to the flight staff. I get excited myself every time. It is so cool to be up there and to see the helicopter land and take off.

Charleston view

Charleston, S.C.

We get so excited about views overlooking the peninsula because we have so few high rise buildings in Charleston. Isn't this glorious?

I hosted a career evening for students interested in Emergency Medical Services this evening at Roper Hospital. Besides the normal skills, ambulance ride etc. I had a special treat up my sleeve. I couldn't tell the students about it since I wasn't sure we could pull it off but we did. I took forty kids up to the roof of Roper Hospital and let them check out the helicopter and talk to the pilot and flight staff. I am not sure who was more excited - them or me!

I need to get to bed, kids. Late night tonight and long day tomorrow. G'night.
