What goes to band camp must come home

Last Sunday


Yesterday, marching in from the buses in the parking lot.


Our trumpeter:
middle row, third from the field.


We can still see her!
Third row, sixth from left!


There are some old friends here, too.
Joe, first row, fourth from left.
Liam, first row, 13th from left.


And today, two ibuprofen and a heating pad for a sore back.

Emily took all the pictures on her phone. These kids move too fast for me.

  5. Band camp is an alien culture to me. Love the photos.
    Your back or hers? Either way, I hope it is feeling much, much better.

  9. Joanne -- How I love to hear high school bands playing on the field. Brings back so many memories. How nice that you are keeping track of the kids on the field :). I would never be able to march with them let alone march and play an instrument! -- barbara

  12. I'm thinking those kids learn a lot more than playing an instrument at that camp... looks to me like a great experience!
