Another Cub Scout Post!!!!

I feel like lately that all my posts are about my son, Cub Scouts and cooking. My favorite topics!! The Cub Scouts finished their last Tiger Trail Achievement needed so they could receive their Cub Scout badge. Over the weekend we went on a hike. We went to an old orange orchard that is on 54 acres. We discussed the safe way to hike and the items they should bring on a hike. We also discussed how we shouldn't destroy the environment and how we could preserve it. Along the trail I had the boys pick up some small items like acorns, berries, nuts, small sticks, etc. This Thursday they will use those items to make instruments.
I’m handing out plastic lunch bags so they could collect their items. 
On the trail we go!!!
This part is so pretty overlooking the river.
The old farm house
The boys love the woods.  It was about 40 degrees, they acted like the cold didn't exist. 
They built the playground on the property to resemble the orange orchard. Complete with orange sorting conveyer belt.
   
     Saturday is our big dinner and ceremony with new ranking badges.
