what was I thinking?

I hope I learned my lesson! I started a 5 mile run at 9:45AMthis morning, and it was rough!! I'm pretty sure it was at least 85 out, and the sun was bright. The hills around campus and on 17th were an extra challenge. I gotta get up earlier!!

A bit of excitement for me on my run was an encounter with a drum corps! Once I heard the tinny, ever-present sound of the Dr. Beat, I knew what it was. They were warming up at the IU Memorial Stadium. I still don't know what group it was! I've checked a bunch of the midwestern corps' schedules, but none are out here yet. After a shower, a trip to Brownstown for a Memorial Day hang, practicing, and a lesson, the corps was still out at the stadium as I drove home at 7PM. (Of course!) It reminds me of how little freedom I had as an individual in the Cadets; every day is full of work! And I loved it! I hope I can figure out who they were...

  1. Bill and I saw the stadium lights on later and drove by. Unfortunately, we missed their rehearsal, but we spotted a van with Madison Scouts logo. Scouts, what are you doing in Bloomington?
