Yellowstone 2004. Good news! Great geysers and waterfalls are still there. Everyone who went came back. All vehicles made it with only minor problems. Softball tournament cancelled due to lack of time. Great time at Bar D Chuckwagon show. Troop 80 cheered the loudest. Ghost Chickens may make an appearance in Durango. Sean Davis received Bone Award from the Greenbar for favorite first year adult. Bryan Sena was named Outstanding Camper. Raft trip went well. Saw lots of buffalo and elk. Saw one grizzly bear. Talked to lots of police. Spent lots of money in REI and other places. Missed mudslide which closed the East Entrance. Drove 5 hours on detour. Lots of rain. Can’t wait to go again. Best Patrol at Wilderness, Mohawk, B3. They had perfect attendance, earned 24 merit badges and had 5 rank advancements. Colton Morris is patrol leader.

Patch for Yellowstone 2004.  The boys on Eagle 2 could not wait to go to the restroom and kept stopping the convoy.  Steve Tillery was running home in a softball game and adrenaline said he must score -- by sliding -- in shorts.  He scored, and his team only lost 10 to 1.  However, he was the proud owner of one of the world's largest strawberry, which also became his nickname for the rest of the trip.  Finally, we were on I-40 and almost home when the bus driver (the scoutmaster) said that we would be home inside an hour.  We then lost a tire, 46 miles from home.  It is not always an honor to "make the patch."
