Scout Camp 2008

I went to Ethan's scout camp for 2 days. It was a blast! I hung out with the crew and had yummy food(not!). It was definitely better than last years fare of dehydrated everything. This year it actually looked like food you could possibly stomach. I went with Ethan to his merit badge classes to make sure he did not skip or fall asleep. He was up most nights until 2 a.m. He was having the time of his life trying to cause trouble in a good way. One bad thing happened though, while I was coming back from the camp on the dirt road, a rock hit my oil pan and put a nice sized hole in it. I did not notice until I was at a grocery store in Driggs, Idaho. When I came out of the store there was oil spilled everywhere. It was a lovely site. So I was stuck in Driggs for a few hours until my friend Matt picked me up and hauled me to Idaho Falls with a tow truck. I stayed overnight in Idaho Falls and waited until 2 p.m. the next day for my car to be fixed. I was supposed to be to work by 12, but I did not get there until 5 p.m. oops!! I did meet up with one of my good friends, Brad, when I was in Driggs waiting. We had a great steak dinner and passed the time by chatting for a few hours. I was lucky that he was down from Bozeman, MT for a family reunion. It all worked out in a good way:) I spent time with my son and some great friends. How can it get any better!!
Ethan, looking like all the boys that have not taken a shower for 4 days. They smelled even better than they looked. Wow!!
