Justin + scouts = fun

Justin recently participated in another scouts Eagle ceremony. I asked some random scout to take our picture It's not the best of me but I have asked that I be in more pictures, as it seems I am never anywhere in the fun because I am the one taking the pictures.

Justin did the reading for First Class.

For Justins communication merit badge he is working on he needs to plan and do a evening meeting . So he was in charge of the ceremony for the evening while camping this last weekend and the did a flag retirement ceremony also.

Practice and teaching younger scouts some knots.

Justin is such a good leader and helper. Recently he ran for troop guide. This position basically is him mentoring younger scouts and that is just so him. He takes he repressibility very serious.

Tent set up. He is a professional at this all by himself. He does it quite a lot. He traded his dad tents this is a one man. He is very particular and doesn't like sharing a tent and this is the only way to get away with out sharing.... Have a one man tent. He just has a hard tome when people are not organized and invade his personal space. He has grown so much this is a small hurdle and not one worth fighting over. Dad Still attend camps with him and sets his tent up close by not because he thinks he needs dad he is not scared in any way, But While camping Justin has a tendency of waking in alarm of not knowing where he is and you just have to say "Justin we are camping . you are in your tent" and then he is fine. Dad has also caught him once trying to escape out the back of the tent walking and talking in his sleep.
Scouts is so awesome. I am so glad Buck is a strong believer in it and that he is with them and in the leadership for them to see.
