Bird + hot dog = ?

the campfire went amazingly well. When we got there we had flag ceremony. The first time for many of them actually pulling a flag up a pole!

then we sent the cubs to find sticks to sharpen, while our lone webelo lit the fire. (It lit RIGHT up). Note: cubs basically need 1:1 to sharpen sticks ... just for the record. Expect it to take a lot longer than planned.

One of the cubs was so careful to get his hot dog perfectly cooked. He was so proud of it. As he walked toward the hot dog buns, a lone bird flew overhead and ... released it's most recent meal and it landed perfectly on top of his hot dog ....

I have to say, it was really funny! He had to cook a new hot dog, because the bird did poop on his hot dog, but ... it was kind of funny!

Smores went well too ... (and when we got home we used our backup plan with the leftovers, marshmallow creme, with Graham crackers and candy bars - a rainy day smore).

All in all, it was a success!!! :-)
