Guardian of the Council Fire

Guest blogger, Chuck McAllister: Mom was elevated from Sachem to Guardian last night. Due to rain earlier in the day, ceremonies were held in the dining hall. Even though most of us would prefer holding ceremonies at the regular site, the dining hall aspect was most appropriate for Mom's elevation. She was certainly caught by surprise, and it was an emotional night for all. She says that she was still teary-eyed (and undoubtedly tired) on the way home and drove right past her driveway, turning around at the highway.

In the dining hall today, we are baking almost 1500 chocolate chip cookies for parents night. Next to go in the ovens are the baked beans and sloppy joes....yep, we decided to take a break from the taco boats that have been done for the past couple of years. Since the Roberts milk truck just pulled up to the dock earlier than anticipated, I'd better go rotate milk in the cooler before Mom is calling my name.
