A Weekend of Scouting

I have been recruited into being the assistant cubmaster (and next year the cubmaster) for Cub Scout Pack 69 in Waterford. (With Connor and Aidan in scouts, and Griffin to join next year, it's kind of a natural fit to be involved in my sons' lives.) So today was leadership training: 6 hours. Tomorrow Connor is going to be in a program at a local park that does three Webelos badges in one day: another 6 hours. Then there is the pack meeting on Tuesday, and next weekend is the pack leaders' meeting, and really I think that scouts might very well become my entire social life for the next few years. That's not a complaint: it's a lot of fun.

I can honestly say it's a role I never imagined seeing you in.

Please, whatever you do, get some self-tanning cream for your legs before you put on those uniform shorts. The last thing you need is a bunch of blind kids running around.

Ha ha ho ho, Dave. Actually, come to think of it, they might be easier to control stumbling blindly than running in all directions at 70 mph.
