And here is our son, Mikel, this year's lead drum major.

And our youngest Sara marching with JROTC. It's an Army JROTC but I guess I can't hold that against her.

And here is a short video of me driving by. I think Gina took the video because of the lifted Chevy across the street.

I was thinking the same thing.

Who would have thought a bunch of senior girls could weight it down that much? Of course there was about 10 of them.

That's the first time it has hauled that much and probably the last for a while. If we get a horse trailer anytime in the near future, I'll trade my Silvy in on a 3/4 ton.
