Boy Scout camp

July 10, 2023

Maxwell got home from Falling Creek on a Friday and packed back up to leave for Boy Scout camp on Sunday morning! He had a good partner though…

Yep, Robert went to Boy Scout camp for the whole week too! He’s a good dad.

From the stories I heard, it sounds like it was a great week – nothing luxurious about it and the bathroom was…lacking – but a great week nonetheless! Maxwell earned 7 merit badges – Shotgun Shooting, Environmental Science, Emergency Preparedness, Search & Rescue, Reptile & Amphibian Study (still to be fully completed!), Animal Science (oh, the stories from this one!), and Wilderness Survival. A very full and productive week! Robert completed the adult IOLS training (Introduction to Outdoor Leadership Skills).

Sounded like everyone had fun shooting shotguns!

Animal science! I think Maxwell learned how about shearing a sheep…and about castrating a “kife”! Also, “sheep are shtupid”!

For Wilderness Survival, Maxwell slept out in the woods with nothing but what was in his hands. Better him than me!

Maxwell cooked jambalaya for the troop one night! Go chef Maxwell!

Bucky Ball

July 7, 2023

Spencer had a great time at Bucky Ball last week. It’s the best camp around! It’s from 9am to 4pm and Spencer gets to play basketball all. day. long. Can’t beat it! Spencer showed up and showed out all week. In one day he won both Free Throw Champ and Hot Shot Champ! That’s my champ!

He even led his team all the way to the championship game.

He played great and his two shots to tie it in the 4th quarter. They went to a “first basket wins” overtime and sadly the other team pulled out the W. But, Spencer played great!
