The Orem High Golden Tigers Marching Band went to their first competition for the 2009 season. Their show is called La vida Breva. It was in Payson Utah at Payson High School. Orem High Marching Band received 2nd place in their division, and Timpview High received 1st place.

Me and Ray dropped Shaun off at the school to go to the competition. Then we went to Alpine to see Dad Walker at Weber and Ann's house. After our visit, we thought we left with enough time to see a couple of bands perform before Orem High. When we were going, we got into BYU football traffic (but the game had all ready started - why were so many people late for the game?) and then we got to Spanish Fork and the traffic started slowing down. There was road construction and the road went to 1 lane by Payson. We went 6 miles per hour for about 20 minutes. I was really afraid that we wouldn't make it for Orem's performance. We had about made it to the exit in Payson and a big semi truck that was a few card behind us, blocked the road so cars couldn't keep coming up and getting in the open lane ahead of everyone. That made it so we finally started moving. We made it to the competition about 5 minutes before Orem High was on. I am sure glad we made it in time. It took us more than an hour to get from Alpine to Payson. What a long trip.
