Bridgerland Competition

On October 30th the band headed way north to Logan and the beautiful campus of Utah State University for another marching band competition. The weather held off while we loaded the trailer, but not for the unload. It was pouring cats and dogs by the time we were unloading. We put up lots of awnings, and tarps to try to keep things dry, Richard and I were both wearing Rain suits

Time for the band to take the field and the rain stops, so off comes their rain jackets.On come the band DAD's with all of the pit equipment

Now here is RACHAEL

And let the show begin . . . .


As I have said before I like the ending to the show and I like it even better when they don't drop Tabitha, tonight they did not drop her.





The show ended and the band left the field and the rain returned, the band had all of their rain gear very close and put it back on to sit in the stands and watch the remaining bands. Richard and Greg Carter hurried back to the buses to find some rain ponchos for the girls.

I don't know how much the rain poncho helped by the time they got them, the girls were soaked. When it was time for them to leave all three of the blankets that I had in the car went with them on the bus hoping they could warm up.



That smile makes all of the practice, travel, early mornings, late nights hard work, rainy and snowy competitions and money involved PRICELESS! Thanks Rachael for enjoying what you do and allowing us to be a part of it.
