Last week, I had the opportunity to go to Scout camp with Alanzo’s scout troop. We had so much fun last year so we were looking forward to this year. Unfortunately, the first couple of days were very rainy. So rainy, in fact, that we had a minor river running through our campsite from the main road until our scoutmaster was able to divert it away from our campsite. Two of our tents flooded. Once the rain stopped, our spirits lifted – the adults at least. The rain didn’t dampen the spirts of the boys and they enjoyed themselves nonetheless.
I took very little pictures this year. Much of what the boys did was similar to last year – cooking, merit badge classes, troop activity, then free time. The rain made it less fun to photograph and I just wasn’t as gung-ho as the previous year. I had hoped to get some astrophotography done since the light pollution would be very minimal. But to be honest, I was just too scared to walk around by myself in the dark 🙂
The picture below was taken on the morning of our last full day (Friday, the 16th). I was the first to wake up and I took the opportunity to walk down by the lake behind our campsite and just enjoy a nice foggy morning. The only thing I was missing was a cup of hot cocoa.
