Aaron has gone camping as a Cub Scout many times. This past weekend was the first time he went as a Boy Scout. He was a bit nervous, but he had a great time.
He was excited to tell me all about the new knots he learned how to tie, orienteering and cooking in the dutch oven.
As a side not he said, "Oh, there weren't any showers so we didn't shower all weekend and not everyone brushed their teeth." I just nodded. What I wanted to say was, "As if I couldn't smell that when you all got out of the cars."
One of the big differences I see between Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts is the amount of leadership skills the older Scouts seem to possess. I was very impressed with the older Scout who was making sure the younger Scouts had all the proper gear.
Here is a picture of Aaron and his best buddy, Coleman, while they were still clean.
