Re: [Philmont]: Alone time

I always took my Bible with me on the trail. I liked reading and praying
early in the morning before my crews got up. Sometimes in the evening after
they had gone to bed. Like someone else mentioned, when you are in camp,
you can find a way to get away a few yards from the campsite and you can
feel secluded. This works great in a camp near running water, as the sound
of the running water can cover the sounds of other people. But be sure to
tell someone you are stepping away from camp so they don't start a search
party ;) Advisors can also hang back in camp during program time if they
want, but I wouldn't recomend that.
