QUESTION OF THE DAY?

MANY BLOGGERS OFTEN WRITE ABOUT THEIR HEALTH PROBLEMS AND TREATMENTS ON THEIR BLOGS. I TRY TO AVOID READING THOSE ENTRIES, ALTHOUGH SOMETIMES IT’S LIKE A TRAIN WRECK AND YOU JUST CAN’T TURN AWAY.

A LOT OF MY FAMILY IS IN THE MEDICAL FIELD, AND I HOPE THEY CAN HELP ME WITH THE “THE QUESTION OF THE DAY?” I HAVE A DOCTORS APPOINTMENT LATER THIS AFTERNOON, AND THE QUESTION OF THE DAY IS, WILL MEDICARE PAY FOR MY BOY SCOUT CAMP PHYSICAL?

AS A YOUNGSTER I SPENT 8 SUMMERS ATTENDING OR ON STAFF AT CANYON CAMP BSA. IT SEEMS  WEIRD THAT I’M RETURNING TO BOY SCOUT CAMP WITH MY GRANDSONS. I’M FILLING IN FOR THEIR DAD WHO IS CURRENTLY DEPLOYED WITH THE AIR FORCE.

THE BOY SCOUTS HAVE CHANGED OVER THE 40 SOME YEARS I’VE BEEN AWAY, AND I’VE COMPLETED MY ON-LINE TRAINING, GETTING MY CAMP PHYSICAL THIS AFTERNOON, AND HAVE MORE TRAINING SCHEDUALLED IN JULY WITH THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. BUT EVEN 48 YEARS CAN’T CHANGE SOMETHINGS ABOUT BOY SCOUT CAMP, LIKE THUNDERSTORMS, SLEEPING IN TENTS, COOKING ON A CAMPFIRE, ETC…….

MAYBE A BETTER QUESTION OF THE DAY WOULD BE, “AM I PREPARED?”
