Jacob was so excited to go to scout camp. The excitement increased when he was able to invite cousin James from Virginia to come along. He was really looking forward to the zip line but got a little nervous to go off the platform. In the end, he gave it ago and even went for a second try.
They saw baby flying squirrels
Every event has its tourist trap. At cub scout camp it is the Trading Post. Jacob had saved his money for his first pocket knife. A friend of his went to camp a couple of days before him and got a knife for $8. Jacob had exactly $8, unfortunately the trading post was out of pocket knives. We took him to Big Five when he got home and found a killer deal on a better knife.
