EYO Swim

Only two boys showed up today besides myself and Dave (the other scout leader) - we went to a pool that a ward member had (old stake president rogers) and worked on some of the First class requirements for swimming.

We had fun trying to make the floatation device from a pair of pants - I tried but kept cheating by touch the bottom of the pool with my toe (advantages of being tall!) - yes, I know there will be no shallow "bottom" in a deep lake or ocean!

We played pool basketball afterwards - Troop 417 vs Troop 486 -- and of course, Troop 417 (my troop) won! The boys are moving along nicely in their advancement and will be more than ready when time to advance up to the regular (12-13) yr old scouts.

Family is heading down to Kingman tonight for a baptism to attend on Saturday. Terri's brother Scott's wife and daughter are being baptised - that will be awesome -- plus I get to see Ann again - can't wait for that!
