Battle On The Border

After work yesterday, Dad rescued me and took me to Blakemore Field and we watched the Battle On The Border marching band contest.

Memories of our marching bands in Texas came flooding back. I was in an elite corp, 350+ in the marching corp alone, and we traveled extensively competing. I loved it.

Dad remembers too, the long trips, the frantic stops at the dry cleaners to pick up my uniforms, the trek back to the house because I forgot a tassel for my shoulder patch, or the buckle to the fuzzy hat I wore.
