SNOW DAY!!!!

For the first time, I was able to do a fun “field trip” with the Scouts… Up to Mt. Hood to play in the snow! We weren’t sure if it was going to be a good play day because of all the rain we had the days before, but it was BEAUTIFUL! Still snowy, cold and windy, but bearable for a while at least!

The trek to the lodge… I think there was 20 kids and 10 adults

This is the view of the lodge from the top of the hill… 4 levels, wood-stove heated, many (MANY) bunk beds

This is about a 3rd of the kids that went… we were the last of out group to leave.

It was a fun but long day… I am glad that I went and equally glad that I didn’t have to drive (thanks Ken!!!)
