Michele's Corner: Boy Scout Jamboree......

Jack and I survived Boy Scout Camp/Jamboree....... I mean that literally! Friday was very windy. We arrived at camp and got everything set up. The boys were up until about 10 pm running around having the best time. It was a little cold and windy but bearable. Jack and I got into our nice warm tent and got settled in for the night. Jack was out like a light! An hour later the wind really started blowing. We were still warm but it was impossible to sleep with all the wind(for me anyway, Jack slept through it all!) Our tent kept going up and down like it was breathing and the sound of the trees overhead which sounded like they could break and land on us at any moment.....freaked me out! The next morning we emerged from our tent to find out that 60 mile an hour winds had blown through our camp!
Well, we didn't let the wind and cold damper our spirits.....the boys got up and headed to the Jamboree for a day of boy scout fun and education.......that evening many of the parents and children left.....they didn't want to deal with the wind another night! Including the head master! Well our little Tigers really wanted to stay another night so all us parents agreed to stay along with two Wolves, 7 Webelos and the Camp Master.......by 5 o'clock the wind stopped and it was a beautiful night! Jack slept in another tent with his buddies Joshua and Anthony and I had a wonderful nights sleep our tent all by myself.........We had a wonderful time and can't wait for the next boy scout camp out.....
If your wondering where RJ was......he doesn't camp.......although he did stop by and eat dinner with us Saturday night......Enjoy the pics!
