Caving in canoes


Dear Pedro, I really enjoy reading your magazine. I like “The Long Goodbye” in July about Venture Scouts who were able to go caving in canoes. Would you ever try something like that?

Canoes and I don’t mix well, Michael — my center of gravity is too high. But if you want to have an adventure like that, talk with your senior patrol leader and Scoutmaster and see if your troop can plan the outing. You never know unless you ask — that’s how I got my last alfalfa milkshake. Well, maybe it was more of a whine than an ask. I think The Boss got it for me just to get me to be quiet.
