Thank You Mr Irving and Mr Brian

Thanks to both of you for all of your efforts in planning and organizing our Adventure

Thank you

I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone that went on the Seabase Adventure. I got to see firsthand a group of fine men that came together to overcome any challenge thrown their way. Besides the adventures described in this blog over the last eight days, the group was faced with hot temperatures, high humidity, very little droplets of rain, and many no see-ums in the evening. While I was praying for lots of rain or some cool hurricane, their was never a moment that this group of fine men were not working together, or enjoying themselves.

I also wish to express a very special Thank You to the Island Mates Justin, Josh, and Devin that made our Adventure one that we will never forget.

Pitch Fork Pit Stop

We just made a quick stop at Sea Base to donate three pitch forks. It turns out that Captain Marshall was in the office when we arrived. He was the Bilge Rat's Captain for fishing day. Not only a heck of a Captain, but a great guy just like everyone we met at Sea Base. We decided to donate the pitch forks after our service project that involved moving Sargasm (sea weed) to build up a path. The only pitch fork they had was broken and the Sargasm was not easily moved by shovel and rake. Thanks again to everyone at Sea Base. Again the Boy Scouts have demonstrated the value of the program and effectiveness at turning boys into outstanding men.
