We sent Corwin off for his first week of camping with the Boy Scouts this summer. He couldn’t remember when he was supposed to depart but eventually I found another parent who at home and knew when the kick off time was.
We spent much of Saturday pestering Corwin to get his stuff together. Corwin didn’t understand why we would want to do that instead of frantically searching for everything minutes before departure. “Be Prepared” just hasn’t sunk in yet.
The most fun was looking for Corwin’s mosquito netting which you really need at the camp site. We looked most of Saturday for it until Mom finally found it this morning. It had actually been put away in a box in Corwin’s closet which is why it was hard to find. Otherwise we didn’t have too much trouble locating the required items.
