Girl Scout camp out is coming up next weekend. We are off to ABQ to camp at the zoo. The troop earns a badge for conservation at a zoo camp out learning about animals and the high desert we live in. Ry is so excited. Me too! She has been aching to camp in a tent for 3 yrs now. We havent had to the opportunity to do so until now. And who better to do it with, Ms. KIm and her daughter Sam. There are 20 or so girls in the troop but only 5 will be going to ABQ. Of course, were expressing to Ry how privileged she is to be participating in this event. I dont want her to take these opportunites for granted. I think she finally gets it. She expressed how concerned she was about the other girls who werent attending.
When she spoke with her other lil Daisy friends, she learned they werent attending because their parents were unable to pay for the trip and fees. A pretty hefty fee I say for a 6 yr old to participate in. But we did. Were so lucky we can give her these opportunities. She'll learn something important about conservation and how it saves the earth. And especially important, that there is an entire world beyound
G-town.
