Today is March 4th, Marching Music Day.
I’m very proud of all the activities our three teenage grandkids are involved in, including their school’s Marching Band. Here are Mckenna (17) and Lucan (15). Wyatt (13) was behind the camera! Mckenna plays the baritone sax and both boys play trumpet. When it’s practice time, the house gets real noisy!
Way to go, kids! Keep enjoying your school activities and making us proud. 🤩

Thanks so much, dear Keith. I don’t know how Mckenna does it; the baritone sex is huge and she’s the only bari player in the whole band.

I know exactly what you mean, Christine. It was considered “dorky” back then. I’m really glad that’s not the way it is now. Thank you.

Always wanted to play a saxophone, but like the clarinet, I couldn’t get a squeak out of it.
