Welcome Back. Since you left for your trip, something in my life was missing – cause I come around daily to see, if somethig new is on your site. When you mentioned, that you are with the scouts, I remembered the days back then, when I was one of them. I took a chance and spoke with a working mate of mine whom was the leader of the scouts back than and is until today. He was glad to hear, that I was still interested in scouts an told me that – unfortunatly – the scouts group in our town is no longer alive due to a lack of people. Well – he took me on the newsletter-list and I promised to come whenever they get started again and bring my wife, son an daughter along.

Some of the most enduring friendships in my life have come about because of Scouting, in fact. That’s how I know my best man, for example…met him those same twenty years ago.
Glad to hear your interest in the movement has been re-kindled a bit…personally, I feel that Scouting is an immensely worthwhile youth movement that imparts valuable life skills to its participants.
And fortunately, you won’t have to wait for new posts here — I should have one up in a couple of hours.
