Campfire Stories

 

I saw this picture and had to laugh.  I was a Girl Scout in my younger years.  My mother was a Girl Scout Leader.  We had a lot of fun times together.  We had weekly meetings, earned our patches, camped (many different times and places), sang songs, cooked over an open campfire, built outdoor latrines (ugh), sold cookies, made crafts, painted Christmas ornaments, told campfire stories, and the list goes on and on.

I truly enjoyed the time I spent in scouting.  I may not have been a model scout earning my way to the top (I didn’t stay involved long enough) but I learned a lot and had fun while it lasted.  The Girl Scouts is a good program, especial for mother/daughter teams.  I encourage you, if you have a daughter, to consider getting involved together.  You'll learn a lot and the memories you’ll make will be priceless.
