The OshKOsh Report

By now all 30,000 plus persons are now back safely I trust in their hometowns somwhere around the world . What an exciting time for Pathfinders , parents and fans who turned out in record numbers in Wisconsin last week. It was my first time and as there's always a story behind a story ( backstory if you please ) , mine is that I got stranded in Chicago the day before and almost didn't make it all the way . Don  / husband( from now referred to as my beloved )advised me to come home . Good thing I didn't listen to that piece of advice , otherwise I would have been reading someone else's blog about Osh .

Most  touching moments : The pantomine with the winking eye performed  by a gloved  Asian pathfinder group - awesome ; the cross in the clouds - no words to describe

Never to be forgotten : Port a Toilets and hand sanitizer a very beautiful and talented Esther

Lifesavers : Nurse who pronounced Jet alive and well after a visit to the first aid , the lady who got me a ride back to Chicago

Most Fun : 'yellin' my head off while teaching due to BMX and Double dutch competition , but honestly I had a blast , pin exchanges

For those of who have never met a stranger it was the time of our lives , including running into old friends some from yesteryear .


See you all , God's willing 2014 , Forever Friends ( Featuring Daniel ) , same time ( almost ) , same place.
