Re: National Anthems

Congrats to Jesse on that awesome performance. I remember when I first tried playing the trumpet many years ago. It was very hard just to begin with, and I ending up playing clarinet instead (which I think is just as hard). But to hear Jesse playing all those anthems with the Dome echoing it perfectly was very emotional. And like what KenWittlief said earlier, the whole perspective really sinks in when you scan the crowd. I always think about how in my short 3 year career in FIRST the things I have seen and the people I've met. Living in the small state of RI there just aren't opportunities like this to meet engineers and mentors like those in FIRST. It is times like this when I have a small break from all the action to reflect that remind me why I participate in FIRST. So again, thanks Jesse for the wonderful memory!
