Well, we started off the new year with three of the boys joining Scouts, more specifically, Tiger Cubs, Weblos, and Boy Scouts. All three of them said they only wanted to join so they could shoot a bow and arrow and shoot a BB gun. I figure if they shoot their eye out while on a campout, let's let BSA cover them. And since I actually remembered what "Weblos" stood for and none of them knew, it was time to get them in.
Kevin is stoked because his troop goes camping once a month. His first campout was to somewhere near Palm Springs / Joshua tree, on the coldest nights of the winter - I think it was down to 28. I was freezing in my own bed! Of course, he didn't wear the long johns he took along with him. Matt likes his troop of three kids, and has actually made Bobcat. Jacob thinks it is "stupid, cause all we do is talk, and then play for the rest of the time." Gotta get him out on a trip.
We went last week to our first "Bleu and Glod" dinner (spelling courtesy of the flyer we were given). It was at the Buena Park Elks Lodge - a time capsule of the 60's and 70's if ever I've seen one. The boys had fun scooting around on the dance floor on their knees. Unfortunately, my pictures are lost somewhere - could have sworn that I had them, but I don't. Well, I'm sure that won't be the last of them.
