Goodnight!

The packing went well and so did the pizza dinner. The kids got their fill and were happy. Before the pizza came in (Thanks Heidi!!) Herb Dunn weighed everyones suitcases with a scale that we bought for the tour. Several kids had to pull stuff out to make their bags lighter. Here's what we are up against when it comes to baggage fees. 
62" inches and 50 lbs is the limit to avoid extra fees

63" - 80" - $175.00
Over 80" - Not accepted

51- 70 pounds - $90.00 one way
71- 100 lbs - $175.oo one way

We saved a couple of students $180.00. We moved some of the percussion stands around
to lighten the load. Some students gave up some room in their suitcases. (Thanks Josh W. & Steve S.)
The kid should be getting to bed shortly. It's going to be a short night. Since we have to start loading a 3:00 am tomorrow morning. Uhhhhh! 

We currently have 60 kids and adult going on this tour. Of the 7 adults 4 are male and 3 are female. We have three other sets of parents joining us who are there for support and cheerleading. (Burnseds, Shakespeares, and Walkers) In that group have 2 doctors and 2 dentists. We are set and in good hands. 
(I'll give more info on who is on tour with us later).
Well it's time for me to go and try to get some rest. I wish you all well and keep us in your
prayers. Keep checking in on us and I'll try to keep up the blog daily. 
Ciao!
