|
|
| The
quote of the day: |
|
| "I lost my son because things went so seamlessly after the
service at the chapel with the procession, that he never knew the religious
service was over and the next event was starting, so he didn't go to our
agreed to meeting place after the chapel service" |
|
|
(He
was quickly located sitting in the council ring at the campfire when we
called his name) |
|
|
|
Seamless, that's not one of those words you hear every day about a
Scouting event! |
|
|
| Thanks
