Homecoming 2016

It's been an interesting weekend so far. Last night we went to the Crazy For You, the Homecoming Musical. Sue Moore had gotten us tickets in the handicapped section on the break in the Benson. It was complex getting there but we did. Keri really enjoyed the play but the highlight of the evening was meeting up with Brenda Wilkerson, one of Keri's old friends. She was so patient with Keri. They relived old times for 30 minutes and There was nothing uncomfortable about it.

This morning, we went to Waffle House for a late breakfast, then made pumpkin Rice Krispie treats. The tailgate began at 11:30. It was attended by the same ole crowd with the addition of Tammie, Vivian, and some other people I didn't know. My treat was the presence of Dan Blucker and two of Dean Bawcom's brothers. They had a memorial for Dean earlier in the day, but we couldn't make it. It has become very difficult doing several thinks in a row. 

It felt strange today. They had decided to cater with KFC and we were to bring drinks and desserts. The problem is that no one had bothered to tell us. We had missed the last tailgate. I also felt that we were somehow on the fringe today. Maybe it was just my mood, but I felt that we had been written off. I was busy visiting with Dan and Dean's brothers. When I looked up, most people were gone. They hadn't come over to say goodbye. Of course, everyone headed for the game and we delayed to pack our stuff. I took a photo that seems to reflect my impressions of the day.
