Soggy-Cold Knights

We spent the day at the Knights of the Round Table Cub Scout Day Camp. The high temperature today was about 46 and the wind and rain was gusting 40-50 mph. I teach Archery at Day Camp so I was outside in it all day. The other activities were all moved inside, but the lucky BB Gun and Arhcery instructors got to stay outside yelling over the wind all day. Needless to say the 1 1/2 hour drive home was a warm-up. I had to drive a strange SUV - I'm not accustomed to these behemoths at all and with the wind and the rain I'm surprised the trip didn't take twice as long.

OK - I'm through complaining - the Scouts had a lot of fun - and I'm really blessed to be able to teach Archery as it brings so much JOY to the boys.

I wasn't able to get many pictures of the Man-Cub - but here he is learning to fold a flag - we actually already did this as a den - but I'm sure it was fun to do it with real live soldiers.

One of the few crafts caught on tape - The Man-Cub decorates a Jumping Jack.
