These two are leaving us soon. Their humans arrive to take them home on November 10. While they vomit more than any other cats known to man, they have been a lot of fun to have around. I am really, really going to miss them!
Boy Scout Meeting
John and his Cub Scout den attended a Boy Scout meeting with Troop 707 this evening. This is another step in the troop-selection process. He was surprised at how “boy led” the meeting was, but he really liked that. While John attended the meeting, I spent some time talking to the leaders about the different aspects of the troop. I am not sure where this troop ranks on John’s overall list, but he did seem to enjoy himself.

Babysitter Certification
Laura took the American Red Cross babysitter certification class today through Girl Scouts. She was so excited when she got home, and she can’t wait to get her official certificate. If you need a babysitter, let me know! I am pretty sure a certain Red would love to watch your kids.
Boy Scout Troops
John and Andy spent the day visiting three Boy Scout troops. They began the day with Troop 6. Things didn’t go quite as expected. No one was really prepared for a five-mile hike in the mud. John was one of the first to fall.
He recovered, but it took a while as he was mad at himself for falling. After lunch and a stop at home to change clothes and clean up a bit, John and Andy headed off to the afternoon with Troop 706. They actually had a trebuchet and the boys got to watch pumpkin chunking! John thought this was particularly cool.
They spent the evening with Troop 4 eating great food. John was impressed with the dump cake. John has a big decision to make and I can only hope that today will help him start down that path!
Sleepy
We went to tell John it was time to go to bed and found him like this.
Fire
How is that our air conditioning was just on yesterday?!?
