This morning Radar put his front paws up by Andrew's face and sniffed him to wake him up. I guess he pawed at his face at the same time because Andrew woke up with a hoarse "auuugghhh"! I knew I was in for a treat.
Andrew said, in a loud whiney voice, that Radar scratched him. He continued to complain about his throa,t and he was sick, and he can't go to school, blah blah blah.
I told him that it was too bad because we would have to cancel our Cub Scout meeting and our Rescue Mission. Of course he calmed down a little and asked "rescue mission?".
So today Andew went to school. I'm heading up there in a little while with stuff to make trail mix, bandanas to make knapsacks, rope to rescue scouts who fall off the trail when I tell them to, gauze to cover their pretend cuts and then bandage with the bandanas.
Maybe they will be future Red Cross volunteers.

You know just how to get Andrew to go to school! How did the cubs like the rescue mission? Write more.

After making trail mix, discussing junk food, and one wasp sting, we headed off on our hike. We stopped to rest on the blacktop and ate our trail mix and learned a new song. We headed off on the steep cliffs of the Grand Canyon until 3 scouts fell. They were successfully rescued and then the others fell. All scouts were rescued, so we headed back to play a game. I heard one boy telling his mom all about it, so I know it was a successful meeting.
