Memorial Day and other updates
Greetings, everyone! It is Memorial Day, and what better way to celebrate than with a parade?
Trent marched with the Cub Scouts today, and looked very sharp.
Last week, he participated in a Raingutter Regatta with the Cub Scouts. He did a great job building his boat, with assistance from big brother Alex.
A lot of the boats had a pirate theme.
Alex had a project he had to do for school, and he picked this one. Yes, he wanted to make an electric guitar out of a box of Altoids. They are curiously strong.
He did the majority of the work himself, and after Karrie made a trip to Home Depot, and Alex and I made a trip to Radio Shack, we were set.
Here is the outcome: ( it is pretty impressive )
And.....it works !
All in all, it has been a great weekend. There was karaoke, parades, and our great friends Bobby and Mary came out for a cookout and some Wii Bowling. We didn't take any pictures, so you have to use your imagination.
Happy Memorial Day, everyone!
One last thing, can anyone tell us who these fine looking young gentlemen are?
Take care, gentle reader...and as always, stay tuned !
