Tonight was one of those "Golden fifth Tuesdays". No Scout stuff, for once in a while. Except that I spent awhile on the phone figuring out how to find a new place for the troop to camp this weekend and how to find enough adults to drive them. Oh, well. This is the third campout in quick succession, as it turns out, and our regular adult attendees have stuff backed up at home. I guess. Between that and trying to transfer some videos from DV tape to DVD I've used up most of my evening.

Caryl will be award the Silver Beaver award this Friday. She was greatly surprised when she was told about this in front of the troop meeting a few weeks ago. The Council annual dinner is where it's presented, which is why I can't go to the campout (at least not until Saturday). I call this award the coolest thing with the dumbest name... It's not given to just anyone, of course (there were only two women in the entire council that got it this year).

Does it seem like we do nothing but Scouting? Hmm...
