Rudy earned his Tenderfoot rank in Boy Scouts. I'm so proud of him :)

Of course you should be proud (of any scout)!  :)

I used to be a Boy Scout - some of the best days of my youth.

He's really done well in the scouts. He needs that male bonding thing ... you guys know ... the 'tribe'. I love when he bonds with other males. They do a lot of camping and hiking. Rudy's father knows nothing about the wilderness.

it was the wilderness stuff that really changed my life.

also running wild through the suburbs after dark - they wouldn't allow that kind of thing now I suppose.

I could see you enjoying the life of a caveman.

And congrats on the new scout badge Angela, good going!

Thanks El ... each time he gets an important badge, I receive a small pin, about the size of a lapel pin. :)

Michael, funny  ... we used to roam around after dark all the time "in the suburbs" ... sometimes we even "camped out" at our house or our friends house in the backyard, tent and all. 'Intro to Trouble 101' ;) Ah ... the teen years. You always need to remember what You did, while raising a child. They will do the same things.

Hey Jen ... Yes, he's a cutie and a charmer. I'll have to keep my eye on him. He's got that pubescent 'girl' thing going on. I told him to stay away from girls ... that they're only trouble. It best to just be friends with them ;)
