Parade

Saturday marked another Farmers Day parade with Silent River lion dancing down the street. It was by far the most time I've spent in a lion. It was exhilarating, nerve wracking and  exhausting. Mostly I was just trying not to step on the feet of the head or get to far behind. I definitely felt like like I was a few steps behind all the time. The biggest moment of panic was when we went to do a wave, which I have never done before. I wasn't sure what to do exactly so I just copied the head, hopefully it looked alright.

Despite the bit of nervousness I had a great time. It was a lot of fun and I am glad to have had the experience. Being the tail sure gives the back a workout, mine is sore and stiff today. I was surprised that my shin is still aching from the bit of jogging I did. I smashed it pretty hard with my meteor hammer a couple weeks ago. It left a wicked lump and bruise which I manged to make even bigger while sparring during the pandamonium. Guess its not done healing yet if I can feel it while running.
