At the beginning of October, Ricky’s scout troop had a Rain Gutter Regatta. I missed going, because of the new babe, but Kevin and Ricky told me all about it.
Ricky painted and designed his boat to be the Titanic Terror. He was very pleased with himself and we were pleased with how much he worked on it.
From what I understand, he ran a couple of races and did really well. The boy who won everything had a REALLY fancy boat and blew everyone out of the water. Ricky’s boat held its own and Ricky could be proud.
In true cub scout form, everyone got a certificate and ribbon. I’m kind of sad I missed out – but with four more boys in the line-up, I’m sure I will get to see a Regatta one of these years!
