Really proud of my friend @TonyCaridi (That's him on the left in the pictures below if you weren't sure.) Tony is spending the week reading his amazing new book to kids in classrooms throughout WV. Tony's a terrific broadcaster, role model, dad, and author as well. Good goin, Pal!
It's story time! 📖 @TonyCaridi and Marty are making their way across the state this week to read "Watch Where You Put Your Feet Down" with students!
