Canoe Trip To IN

Wyatt is ready to hit the river!

Loading all of the gear.

AJ, Luke, Wyatt and Michael

Who knows what they are scheming.

Lined up in Patrols for roll call.

Last minute instructions.

 

Unless you actually go will you ever know what goes on.  Michael is a man of few words.  I can always rely on Luke to give me a heads up if something happened.  He did not disappoint.  First thing Luke comes to the van to tell me that Michael lost one of his hiking boots in the river.  What...how in the heck do you lose a hiking boot in the river?  I guess when you are swimming and your boots aren't tied tight enough of your foot there is a huge chance you can lose it.  So Michael doesn't mention it to anyone and hobbles back to the bus with one boot foot and one sock foot.  He took no extra shoes (my bad) so Mrs Day let him borrow her boots for the rest of the trip.  He has to return them tomorrow at scout meeting.  So Boot Country here we come for hike boots pair number three.

 

Michael rates this campout a 7 out of 10.  That' pretty good for Mr. Cup Half Empty!  His tent mate was AJ.  Wyatt was Grub Master this trip.
