Ethan!
Poor little guy is not having a great time at boy scout camp.
He was attacked by a wasp during yesterday's hike. It started after Daryn, but couldn't get past his hair, and went at Ethan and into his ear. He reached up and smacked it and killed it ... thankfully before it stung him! Daryn reported that several of the kids were in similar situations (attacked) ... not sure if any were stung.
Ethan also has an ear infection. He went into the water the day they got there (Sunday) because he had to do a swim test. The person watching them didn't see Ethan do a certain requirement and Ethan asked if he could redo it. They wouldn't let him, but told him to return during free time and he could do it again. Between the two he acquired an ear infection and Daryn took him to a doctor and he is now on antibiotics. To top it off, doctor has told him absolutely no going into the water. Poor guy. No small boat sailing merit badge. He really wanted to do it, too!
Lastly, getting out of the water Sunday, he was stung by a jellyfish. There was no one there to pee on him, so he was told to smear katsup on it ... and that's what they did.
I asked Daryn to please take photos of all the wounds ... but apparently, when I asked Ian to make double sure (after I had already checked) the camera had a card, he didn't, and they don't, so no camera :(
This photo is a bit out of sequence, but it was the best one Mrs. Gentry sent of the kids on the dock and the boat. This is reboarding at Blake Island. Ian has the green backpack on.

I personally love this shot.
A bit of Titanic? (He's never seen it!)
Ian believes he's Captain Jack Sparrow a la Pirates of the Caribbean.
Using the winch to raise the sail.
I like this photo, too.
