Steve is now the 11 yr old scoutmaster and this past weekend was his first scout campout. They had been talking about it and planning it for weeks and the boys were so excited. The week before the campout we started watching the weather to make sure it would be ok and they kept saying it was going to SNOW!! We didn't quite believe them because it was so nice outside so we went up and found a nice campsite.
The night before the campout Steve called all the boys to tell them the trip was a GO! Just like the weather people said a storm came in that night. Luckily they didn't get rained on but it was super cold! Steve said that it wasn't that bad because everyone was prepared to be cold so they packed warm. Saturday morning the snow just kept coming down. Steve still wanted to stay and make breakfast, but the other leaders decided to pack up and go home. That night we got the first real snow in the valleys. We got about 2 inches. It was so pretty to look outside and see all the snow. I'm not sure I'm ready for winter to come yet, but it was fun for at least one day.
