Scout Rescue !!!!

Got up this morning, snow and NO power. Comes of living out in the sticks.

Neighbour asked it I would mind helping in rescuing a group of scouts/explorers stranded at a local activity/adventure centre.

She has a D3, so with my FL2, we set off, only hazard was 'incapable' vehicles with 'incapable' drivers ..... blocking the roads.
Got through that and arrived to find young boys and girls, well looked after, needing to be taken to a place of safety, for their parents to collect them.

The kids were on an outward bound winter camping weekend. They had to abandon their tents, yes tents, yes outside, at 5:30 this morning !

All ended well, each child was reunited with their parents.

I was pleased and proud to help. Thumbs Up Thumbs Up
