Gone for a Few!

[Vova]

I am heading out first thing in the morning on my first post-scouting, scout adventure! I am an Eagle Scout, and recently upon realizing I do squat for community service these days, I followed up on my old plan of volunteering with my old Troop. I am heading off on my first trip with them this weekend, it is a simple 3 miles in, 3 miles across the beach, and 3 miles out. Though if the government shuts down it looks like we could be forced out early and do six miles the second day (curiously enough when I did this trip as a scout, we did the same, due to rain!).

Looking forward to it, but it will be interesting. My pack is heavy as crap, but I cannot afford fancy things like nylon pants and water filters. So poly sweatpants from target and a gallon of water it is for me :mrgreen:.

Hoping to "barefoot" the last three miles out in my toe-shoes. See you guys when I get back!
