When you are talking to my husband, you can tell that some of the best times of his life were spent when he was in Scouts. He talks about his experiences constantly and it makes me feel as though I was there for some of the experiences. Some of the things that he and his troop did were a lot of fun. On that same note, some of the things were downright stupid and they are lucky to still be alive today.

One of these such events was a camping trip that they had taken one year. At this particular trip, he and the other guys decided that it would be a good idea to smoke cigarettes in their tent. They were sitting around in there smoking and lighting various things on fire. They created so many fumes that they had to bail out the windows. It is a wonder that they did not burn their tent to the ground.

Another time, when they were at a winter campout, they decided to go exploring on some private property. They came across a cabin and decided to build snowmen on the deck of it. They owners came by and the boys all ran away. The owner yelled at them and started shooting at them with a shotgun. So, like I said they are all lucky to still be alive today.
