Wasn't exactly easy getting 'em both and getting 'em tied up

I can only imagine!! LOL!

Actually, I never had to take the boys camping when I was a Den co-Leader. The other leader's husband took Leader and Camping training, and HE and all the other dads took the boys. We told them that we did the week to week stuff with them, so they could do the infrequent camping trips. The most memorable one for SSQ was the overnight on the Battleship Massachusetts in Fall River. He didn't sleep a wink cause of all the snoring dads. He said the sound just reverberated inside that steel hull!! LOL!

Well, usually in the advanced portion of our program there was one adult for every 2 kids. Cause we did a lot of stuff in small groups. That one year - raining and all - a bunch of people just didn't show up. So, me and this other guy took those 7 kids. It was a fun and memorable experience. But, definitely an adventure!!! I was in my element those days. I played practical jokes, snuck up on those kids in the dark and scared the daylights out of 'em and got 'em lost in the woods at night. Only they were lost.... and I snuck off the trail knowing we were 20 feet from camp.
