Humble but Homey XIII
Festival of the Horse ~ Colt &
Filly Review
Friday, September 23
featuring the Band Scholars and our Tiger Bands
(and the Flat Bed, the Remote
Woodwind Transportation Device, BVII and the Candy Distribution Team)
 |
..... getting ready is more than half of the
fun - and the Band Scholars were great as we prepared the Flat Bed
[courtesy of Giles Farm Equipment], the Remote Wood
Transportation Device [courtesy of our great Band Friend, The
Coroner - ~ Dr. Ginn] and BVII [courtesy of the Tiger
Bands] - and then yes, the was of course the CDT [aka Candy
Distribution Team] - headed this year by Miss Kelly [but Moses and
her reign with the CDT was fondly remembered]

The Queen of the Rodeo herself, Middle Child
~ Scholar Allison Bickers, looking mighty proud of her work and
efforts on BVII - and we all say .....
Grrr... |

 |

Fledgling Taras [whom some of the Band
Scholars call Taras the Terrorist"] holding an American Flag -
which is probably good for him as he is our Band Scholar from
Berlin |

..... and then we are ready to roll
..... |

Left: our favorite Band Alchemist, aka Tyler
Colby Howard, aka Alchy - at the wheel of the ever-faithful BVII
 |
|
Right: a new parade feature this year - was
large, blow-up horses [aka Pegasus] - this prompts us to think
that Ivan will be in our next parade outing with us.

Left: Miss Kelly, head of this year's Candy
Distribution Team, looks at the supplies - yes we went through 41
1/4 lbs of candy rather quickly
Below: Elder Scholar Krista and Middle Child Sarah - bringing joy
and happiness to the children [and all local dentists]

it was a beautiful evening, there was a huge
crowd all along the parade route - only one casualty - and that
tragically was the venerable "Goatsbeard" - may he rest in
peace - after many, many long years of service - but you never
know - like Lazarus - he might come back from the dead and be seen
again at many a Grrr... events. |
