[Philmont]: Quiet Time

The list certainly is quiet.

As far as I know, our two 714-C crews (now on day #8) are doing well.
I've been sending updates to our troop's e-mail list each day telling
about each day's program and each crew's daily destination. I included
the below list in today's email.

YiS,

10. Letters home signed "Prisoner #714-C."
9. Sounds disappointed when he mentions almost being bitten by a timber
rattler.
8. He's been roasting Prozac over the campfire.

4. His name: "Andy"; his nickname: "Andy, the soon to be 55-year old
makes the funniest noises when he puts on his backpack."
3. Makes flashlight hand shadows using only his middle fingers.
2. You ask to see picture of his crew -- he sends photo of a bunch of
sticks.
And the #1 Sign Your Spouse Is Having A Bad Time With His Philmont

scrounge.
