Corwin is heading out for a big camping trip tomorrow to the Upper Peninsula. The troop had a get together last night to get everything packed, so all the boys had to have their equipment assembled. I told Corwin to start getting ready on Wednesday so that if something didn’t go right or there was missing equipment, we would still have plenty of time to fix it.
Of course, Corwin didn’t get started until yesterday around noon. Still, Corwin (with some … encouragement … from us) managed to get everything in place before the evening packing.
Meanwhile, Charles and I are headed off this evening for two nights of camping. This will be Charles’ first experience at camping and he seems fairly upbeat about it. Unfortunately, Charles’ den is rather thin and so it’s not really been an option to send him out with a crew. I decided that we would try the “Parent and Pal” experience first, to get him started.
