Welcome John. I'm excited to meet you on our Hole in the Rock trail trip next month. I'm an assistant scoutmaster for my troop. I sure appreciate people like you who enjoy scouts and put so much effort into it.

Best looking Cherokee I've seen. Let me know if it ever goes up for sale. Welcome to RME.

Welcome, your addictions are almost an exact match for mine except I haven't been bowhunting in years since I messed up my shoulder. I tagged along with my son in law on his Book Cliffs archery hunt last year and had a great time. I have also been in scouts for over 30 years. I am also addicted to fishing especially when I can combine fishing with jeeping.

Welcome to another fellow scouter (I am currently Venture Advisor.)

 

[Westernhunter]

It really is just a thirst for adventure. I love exploring new places, and sharing those experiences. I may be a Scouting newb around here. Only 17 years of leadership. Thank you for all the time you spent with boys. It makes a difference.
