Memorial Days, past and present

In the past, we participated in flag ceremonies with other scouts and scout leaders.

This is after the ceremony in 06. These guys are all grown up now...

sigh.

This is a 2007 ceremony. Jon is hidden..Tony is handling the flag.

This year, Jon and Steve went up to the Mountain ranch to do some stuff and Jon found a snake. Not just your ordinary every day little snake. This one is really strange. It turns out it is a rubber boa! I had no idea we had those here. One site we found suggested they are docile and very sweet..Jon agreed. Personally, I think it is rather ugly, but there you have it. I sent the camera and thought they would get lots of different photos, but they just got this little guy.

Not much else going on. Have one more Xanth book to read before I find something else!
