Kelly, the Bluecoats, and Fort Mill, SC

Dean and I went up to Fort Mill, SC last Wednesday to see his sister, Kelly. She is spending the summer traveling all over the USA with a drum and bugle corp, The Bluecoats. Kelly is the really little one carrying that HUGE horn (the contra). If I remember correctly, the contra weighs 50-55 lbs. It was hard to tell which one was Kelly because you can't see their faces. The easiest way to find her was she and one other girl, Ria, are the only girls on the contra line, so look for the smallest ones. The performance was awesome. It beats the heck out of most marching bands I've ever seen.
