The Homecoming Parade

It is now 5:45 p.m. My tenure as a traffic cop is now over. At 4:00 p.m., I was given a nice little orange vest and sent out to control traffic on the Homecoming Parade route. It was rather fun, pointing and telling people which way to go.

The parade lasted about 30 minutes or so. Our float turned out to be one sided, on the wrong side. Oh, well. Some overzealous 9th grade boys tore down half of the float before it got onto the parade route anyway, being idiots. I then grabbed a quick five dollar hamburger at the Booster's Club Tailgate Party and came back to my room for a few minutes of quiet and coolness before I have to get out there in the announcing booth.

What a long day....
