Lake Pleasant

We signed Colton up for a scout camp with a few of his buddies this summer. He was a little iffy on going, but ended up having a blast. They earned 3 merit badges. Canoeing, Rowing, and Small Boat Sailing. They left early every morning, rode the bus about 2 hours north to Lake Pleasant and then spent the entire day on the lake. They each had a partner for most of the boats and Colton ended up partnering with Mason N. (Mason is standing to the right of Colton in green) Colton is easily twice Mason's size. Poor Mason had to row Colton all over the lake. When they would race Colton would row and Mason claims he was the "motivator".

When we picked them up at the end of the day, they would smell so bad you couldn't hardly ride home with them. During small boat sailing they were in their own boats. Colton is so tall that his sail kept smacking him in the head. They were crashing into each other, the mountain and who knows what else. I'm so glad Colton had the opportunity to go to camp, and for his buddies that went with him.
