The band went to contest today. I guess it was a contest. It was in Arkadelphia, and everyone received a participation award. Anywho, I felt sorry for the band and the band directors. It rained. Not just rained and cleared up. Not a hard rain. Just that nasty wet rain, drizzle, mist, rain kinda rain. I understand they had to prepare and setup the pit equipment and the electronics in the rain. Luckliy it did not rain while they performed. I am also under the impression that the judge who clinic'd them after their performance was a bit harsh and not very "sugar coated." Oh well, it happens...
Anyways, I guess I should feel pretty bad about not having anything to do with the band this year... but I don't. I miss the kids, but I don't miss the head ache!
