He actually came back last Saturday from a week-long Boy Scout summer camp at Camp Grimes in Nebo, NC. Typical of camping with our troop, it rained. A lot. Pretty much every day. Our boys going camping is better than cloud-seeding or an indian rain dance - combined. Never fails!

What also never fails is that each year one of our scouts gets hurt. Well, this year it was Y2K! I get an urgent text from my wife Monday night (7/9) just stating "call me immediately". I was out of town with customers at a dinner. Called and found out that Y2K was using another scout's pocket knife to try to get his pocket knife "un-jammed" (the knife's lock was stuck and he couldn't close it), and the other scout's knife's lock failed. Y2K knows better, but now he'll never forget. 6 hours - and 6 stitches later, he'll now have an interesting scar to talk about.

Fortunately he's okay with no nerve damage. He made it though the rest of the week, earning 5 merit badges and one partial (couldn't catch a fish while fly-fishing, but no one could - too hot). He also had his ScoutMaster conference leading up to last night's Board of Review. His peers are teasing him relentlessly - which he is taking in stride (after all, he rarely goes to a Troop meeting with less than 1/2 a dozen knives on him). I'm just glad he is okay - and of course, as always, I am proud as a peacock!!!
