    Justin is up at Moon Rocks.

    Rob is up at Fordyce.

    Yes, I'm jealous 😁



    I have the cub scouts camping in my back yard tonight. Tomorrow we all go to the Memorial Day flag ceremony at the high school. Then we are having a family BBQ at my house. So, still having some fun this holiday weekend 😎

    I wheeled my bike, does that count? I got about 15 miles in before it started to rain.

    Larry is at Fordyce, but he may have gotten rained out. I ran the weedeater for a while then went to my brother's bachelor party (sort of). I'm not sure what I've got lined up after that.

    We love scouting in our house too. I was in scouts up until I was a Junior in high school. Wish I'd stuck with it...



    Both my sons started in Cub Scouts as little Tiger Cubs. My older boy is now working on his Star on his way to Eagle. My younger boy will cross over to Boy Scouts next year.



    I am a registered adult leader for the Boy Scout's troop and a den leader for the Cub Scouts. My wife is the Secretary for the Cub Scout's pack and the advancement coordinator for the Boy Scout's troop.



    Scouting is the best thing going for these kids. Congrats to your son for acheiving the rank of Eagle.

    Anyone hear how it was at Fordyce? Is it still covered in snow? If not, I'm ready! πŸ˜€

    Moon Rocks was being covered in snow when I got out of there this morning.

    Last report I got was that the crew was almost at the first river crossing. That's a long, long day.

    I'd imagine they could spend a half day at the off camber spot if it has snow on it. Talk about a place that could need some serious shoveling.

    Sounds like it doesn't look good for trail maintenance next weekend

    Actually I was over near Indian Valley Reservoir. I saw it was supposed to rain and snow in the Sierra's, and supposed to be clear on the west side of the valley. Got rained on Saturday, for several hours, but the rest of trip was clear. Lots of wind though. Kind of cool at night.

    We didn't open the cabin because we still don't have water. The valves are under about 4ft of snow in some places.



    We were able to get some supplies up there and make things easier for my parents.

    How does your jeep get worked on when you're in LA?

    Maybe make it a full weekend for those who can do so. Otherwise either Saturday or Sunday for those that can only do 1 day. Ronie and I would be up for the weekend if possible.

    I'm back in School starting july 5th, so there won't be much wheeling for me after that time (other than possible day runs).
