Ah, yes...the trip to Washington that I didn't get to take. Oh, well. At least that means I'm not in this picture.
Terrell Shaw
Was this your year to go? I'm sorry you missed it.
Erskine Thompson
Yes, this was my group. Not sure why, exactly, I didn't get to go - I can only assume that we didn't have the money for the trip. Oh, well. I got to go the next year with the high school band, so at least I can say I've been to DC.
Terrell Shaw
I went with the West Rome Band in '63, I think.
Terrell Shaw
Tag some of the folks for me if you get the chance.
Erskine Thompson
Oh, that could be fun.
Terrell Shaw
Can you find Stacy?
Erskine Thompson
I think I see her, but I'd have to find her copy of this picture to be sure. She has one that's in color, but it's been a while since I've seen it.
Burt McCollum
Heh. Wow. I'd completely forgotten about this trip.
I remember a huge sculpture of a man rising up from the ground, as if from a grave...
Terrell Shaw
It was called "The Awakening" down past the Jefferson Memorial at the tip of Potomac Park. Here is a recent picture taken from the web:
Kimberly Horn commented on this picture: I remember going to see it, & a couple was getting wedding pictures taken there! To where did they move it?
Terrell Shaw
So which one is Burt?
Shawn Davis
I just tagged Burt. That is the coolest picture. Notice the girls with the big 80's hair and the guys with the blue jean jackets!
John Houston Moore
Yes!!! Butt-cut!!
Mary K Boggs
Oh my stars!!! The style of my hair, or lack of style, is HIDEOUS!! What great memories!!! And I loved that sculpture too!
