Jamboree is definitely winding down now. The troops started leaving early this morning and by noon everyone was gone except for one troop whose bus had problems. I think they finally got out of here about 4pm. If you read the blog yesterday you will know that I hoped that it wouldn't rain on the scouts since they were sleeping under the stars. Well, they weren't so fortunate. About 3:30am or so it started to rain and rained lightly into late morning. I heard a lot of the scouts were pretty soggy by the time they were able to board their buses.
We spent the day getting equipment picked up and packed away. As I have mentioned before we have laptops, ink-jet printers, laser printers, mice, network switches but we also have lots of 2-way radios and 1300 cell phones. These phones were loaned to staff so that they would have to use their own minutes. We got so much done today that I think we will get done sometime tomorrow. I am hoping to head into Washington, D.C. for the day Friday to do some sightseeing. Any suggestions?
Y'all have a great day.
I am feeling for those bus drivers who get to drive soggy, smelly scouts across the country. Bless them! Jordan said that riding the Metro in DC with those smelly little fellows was quite an experience.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Washington DC tomorrow, any chance on catching an early flight home? That would be my vote. SLY Rob
I hear the Smithsonian is a great place to go, just watch out for Rex if you stay the night.
