So, if you don't recognize this guy, this is Chris at Epcot. The Ben Logan Marching Band goes to Florida every four years, and this was the year. It was quite the trip.They went to most of the theme parks in the Orlando area, as well as spent a day a Cocoa Beach. They also went to a Medieval Times Dinner Theater. It was a busy trip. The band marched in the pre-parade parade the day they went to Disney World. Apparently that was the least pleasant part of the trip. Marching in full winter uniform in 80+ degree weather sound like fun, anyone? To add to the discomfort, they spent all day at the beach (don't forget your suncreen!) the day BEFORE they had to get into those wonderful uniforms that keep you warm on a chilly night during football season in Ohio. Who scheduled that? All in all, it was a great trip. An added perk was that they went during the week of spring break, which had to be cut short in order to make up some of the snow days. Thus, while the rest of the students were back in school 3 days earlier than scheduled, the band played in the sun for a whole week. Some people have all the luck. I'm glad he 
go the chance to go. Getting our family to Florida for a vacation isn't at the top of our list these days. We'd rather head west to be with family if we're going to take a trip. Anyhow, in this second picture these guys all decidedto get some head gear that reflected their heritage. What a hoot! Don't you wish you were there? Surpise of all surpises, the boy with a bottomless pit for a stomach actually brought home $4o of food money that he didn't use. Oh, and a gift for his mother. Wasn't that thoughtful of him? It would have been if I hadn't reminded him before he left that there had better be something for me in his bag when he got home, or someone could get hurt. They were getting back on my birthday, after all. Now I have a lovely rose that will never lose it's bloom. If you ever happen to be at our house, I'll show it to you. Well, that's enough of this - laundry is calling my name.
