A Different Friday Night

 


No need trying to enlarge the picture, it's all about the words.  

Friday night football is big here.  Serious business, lots of spectators, cheerleaders, band half time show.

This year it's Covid-different.

What you can see is part of a band, spaced apart, not in uniform.  No half time show because half time is limited to six minutes.  Each player, cheerleader, band member is limited to two spectators, so not much crowd.

In the front of the picture is a blue podium, where the drum majors conduct.  And on that podium is my grand girl, who got to conduct a bit last night.  

She is the sophomore drum major, usually on the field playing the metronome in the shows until she moves up in her junior and senior year.  Except that this year there are no half time shows and no competitions.  So that little bit of podium time with conducting was special.

I wasn't there in person, but it made this grandmother's heart happy.
