Picture: Me in the hotel!Well, Michael here. Looks like this is my first post. Sorry about that, just been a little too busy buying a new camera and packing to get to blogging!
To start off, Jamboree kicks off in some hours here (Its 1:02 in the morning and Im busy getting situated with making sure I have EVERYTHING, etc) and im just too excited. Ive been talking with a lot of friends (missing a graduation party, actually) about how im gonna be in Virginia till the 4th for the 100th year of scouting BSA National Jamoree! They dont seem too hyped as I do though, so I guess its just a silent victory. I cant wait to get down to business with everything the jamboree has to offer (Like free wifi! How cool is that?).
Also, I dont know about Rj, but expect a LOT of picture uploads to this here blog. Im carrying 12 gb's worth of SD card and a 4 gigabyte base hard drive for my camera. As Rj will too, we'll try to describe the events of the jamboree for those who aren't going to be there.
The days been pretty hectic. I worked my butt off just to find all my 513 unit shirts and get everything into order. Ive been pulling a few all-nighters just to get this all ready and packed! But im sitting in 'The Courtyard' hotel typing this here post, so i'd guess I did a pretty good job in packing. I just hope everybody else is packed and has enough money with them (I'm set for the week... $$$!) so that they can make it through the jamboree!
Although its a short blog post, I cant really say much more as I've gotta get up in a few hours and get on a bus. I'll update you guys when we hit Philidelphia. The ride hopefully wont be too boring (Well, It wont for me. I got 4 hours worth of battery on this beast and a video game loaded on. :) ).
Peace out, boy scouts! (and parents)
