Trips home to AL are never really quick (1× hrs one way), but the time spent with family always seems to fly by. This trip was actually planned for the weekend that Hurricane Florence came. So coming during the week meant more time with my parents and an opportunity to help them with a few things, but it meant very little time with siblings and their spouses and children.
We did fit in a ballgame tonight. While my sole purpose was to see my niece perform with the band, it was good to be in the stadiums and cheer for my alma mater.
A few things had changed. The band has a dance team but no rifle line. They also had an electric guitar on the sidelines which totally shocked me. My sister in law was telling me that a nearby school had a small ensemble of them. I guess things change over time.
I took a lot of pics, but won't be able to post them until we get home as phone and internet service is spotty here.
It will be good to be home, but my heart will still be here, longing to finish the projects we started and helping out with some basic things.
