In the country and plugged in

So, we were at a country heritage celebration when the kids went down to see the horses.  Here's 1 of 4 showing the horse how to use her ipod.  I found 2 of 4 hiding behind the barn with a bunch of other teens, many of whom were locals.  Guess what they were doing?  Texting each other.  I suspect some day it will get to the point when parents will be able to just unplug their kids at bed time since I'm sure the next step is to physically implant the devices for ease of use.

Here's 2 of 4 performing.  She managed to put down her phone long enough to get up on stage.  I suppose she didn't mind though as she's on an instrument that's plugged in.
