The scouts, many of their dads, and I went on a canoeing campout for the past three days near the Great Dismal Swamp–a very fitting name for this area. It rained on us most of the time, but we had a blast and overcame numerous challenges trying to stay warm and dry. The boys were an inspiration for their perseverance, and the leaders for their relentless service in making sure everyone was as comfortable as possible under the circumstances. Camden was a real trooper and helped take care of me during my awful migraine on day 2. I can’t wait for the next adventure with these guys!
