    Hello and welcome to our story.  It begins many months ago at one of the few meetings that the 81st
Thunderbird Rovers have. Huck brought up the idea of going to BURFORD.  Everyone in the crew planned on
going of course as everyone in scouting knows that it never gets organized.  Then many weeks ago an email
was received by all.  "Could we please start to arrange rides for BURFORD?"  A week before this great
occasion was to occur Huck decided that Mom would love to go and asked for a ride. This was when Shot Gun
was also called! Along with everyone else all was settled. Those who were at University had rides and those in
Hamilton had the WENDY's MOBILE!  On Friday, October 16, 1998 calls were made and emails were sent
detailing what route the WENDY's Mobile would take enroute to the dance in BURFORD.  But wait what about
the emails?  Oh no it couldn't be happening!  Or could it? Lumberman and his 18th Kingston peoples were not
going!  This also meant that Qweak and the Meatless Wenie would not be able to attend!  Disaster had stuck
again!  After all of the emails and phone conversations many people went to work there butts off at Apple day.
Of course there were the smart Rovers who decided to go out instead.
    As Saturday arrived many rovers awoke to the belief that everything had been settled the night before! This
however was not the case. Huck went to work, and all they other rovers went to Apple Day. Oh and what
happened to Flynno? Was it work?, apple day? Or was he on the bus from T.O.?
Who knows?

    Apple Day was done, work was done and Mom was on his way to good old Laurier Recreation Centre to
pick up Huck.  While waiting for Mom, Huck decided to see if Miller had been picked up yet?  Upon hearing
Huck's voice Miller replied "No I'm not going, I'm tired"
    As Laurier Recreation Centre was being locked for the weekend Mom arrived in the WENDY's MOBILE
ready for the drive ahead.  With Huck's pack in the van, off we went to St. Andrew's United to pick up Flynno.
Arriving at the top of the Mt. Albion access a van was spotted!  This was no ordinary van! It was a OUT OF THE
BLUE VAN!  I think I've seen vans like this before?
    We arrived at St. Andrews with plenty of time to spare.  Still not knowing where we were going we took the
time to look at a road map (yes 2 guys took time to look at a road map and we had no females telling us too
either).  Flynno arrived a short time after 5 pm.  His arrivial was very fast paced and showed that he was in a
rush to arrive. After loading more gear once again we went to Horny Tims! By this time we were anxious to go.
Before we hopped back into the Wendy's Mobile and the Cab, Natalie casually mentioned the white spot on the
front of her shirt!  You know there would be no end to this one! Stopping at a bank machine to get Huck some
money nasty comments were made between Huck and Natalie.  As we approached Brantford we decided on
Harvey's for dinner.  Huck, Flynno, and Mom hadn't eaten but the suckers in the cab had already spent the time
to go to Harvey's in Hamilton.  What a waste of Gas!  No wonder Natalie had the white spot on her shirt!  Either
that or she didn't have any socks!  Once we sat down we realized that there was no way that we would all fit in
the booth so we Re-Decorated!  As we enjoyed our delicious meal Mike "I'm Natalie's Cabby" Pipe began
hitting on her again.  When we were finished our meal Huck grabbed the Toronto Sun!  Are you thinking what I'm
thinking?  One reason only!  See the problem was that she was married and had a kid.  On top of the fact she
was what say 8 years older than I. As we neared BURFORD we were amazed to find that it actually made it on
signs directing you where to go!  A loud cheer when up from the Wendy's Mobile and the Cab! Everyone was
joyous as we had found BURFORD.  We arrived at the camp ground at 630 pm.  After registering with the nice
ladies at the front we went for a walk.  Upon walking a whole ten feet we came upon Sean "BURFORD".  He
then told Natalie and Huck that Rob Bolton was at camp. In attempting to locate Rob, Flynno ran into all of the
ORC women! "Hey its FLYNNO Yeah!
    An hour later not yet having found Rob we decided that if we were going to find him we should just ask for the
guy with his shirt off!  Sounds reasonable cause he never seems to have a shirt on anywhere else!  As night fell
we decided to ERECT the tent.  Of course Natalie had to help!  Not knowing how to set up this tent Huck and
Mom decided to forfeit the 81st tent and go with the 2 man of Huck's.  As Huck's tent was being set up Flynno
arrived and showed everyone which of the 2 sets of poles we grabbed went with the tent.  From there it was
Smooth Sailing!
    It was now approximately 8 pm and the Dance was almost happening.  We arrived at the dance and Mom
went the wrong way to park!  Brilliant Move!  We found the right spot and as we were getting out of our
Spacious Automobiles the suckers in a boat pulled up with about 12 people in one car.  As we moved towards
the doors to the dance hall Huck and Natalie came upon ROB!  After catching up and seeing robs new jewelery
(a tongue ring and 2 more earings since last time) we entered the Dance Floor. Our first thought was "oh this
would be great picken for Wildman!"  Young teenage, you know about Huck's age.  This is where the SPECIAL
Sticker distribution began!  Of course Flynno was with all of the ORC women.  Then there was Huck who was
mingling his way through the many females he knew at camp.  OF course this was to disribute the special
stickers to all of those lucky ladies and some cool dudes that we thought were deserving.  Amazingly the cool
and sexy Rangers from Brampton were there.  Huck was incredibly happy to see these Extra SPECIAL ladies.
Mike then promised to be back later and went to see Hick boy Spanky and his twin Gord!  They were in the hall
on they other side of the parking lot.  They without hesitation played DEAD PUPPIES! for Huck!  As the night
wore on Huck saw many people whom he knew and had a great time dancing it up.  Meanwhile Flynno was still
with those ORC ladies.  They were planning some group costume together.  Mom was hanging with Nat and her
entourage of a cab driver and Damien from the Seventh Layer of Hell.  Huck then saw Mom sometime later
outside, what did mom have?  FUDGE oohs!  Back to the rest of the story- Halfway through the night Huck was
introduced to some more Rangers from Missasauga.  They were determined not to let me make anyone else
SPECIAL and asked that I give them the role of stickers.  Of course there was no way that this would ever
happen so they obliged and took off somewhere.  As the night closed everyone joined in a circle for a nice
singalong of Tim Leary's "ASSHOLE."  When the dance ended it was time to hop in the Wendy's Mobile and
return to the camp grounds.  By this time the Cab was long gone home to Hamilton.  But anyways Huck offered
a ride to 3 of the ladies from Brampton there names were Cheryl, Sue and Rachel.  Now Huck had known them
for almost a year now so this was not such a big deal.  Coming to the one and only set of stop lights in Burford
the people in the 2 cars in front of us made an 81st like dash around the cars! This was followed by huck yelling
"I'm not wearing any pants" as we passed people walking towards camp after the light turned green of course.

Wait... Green= stop
           Red = go

No no no other way around!

    After getting all of our camping equipment from the van and starting on our trek Huck ran into those other cool
rangers from Missauga!  They invited us to the Big campfire after to hang with them.  Arriving at the camp fire
Dave began to feel as though he would make a fool of himself and decided to lead singalongs.  Meanwhile
Huck was busy yakking it up with the beautiful ladies from Brampton and Missasuaga.  Flynno however was no
where to be found and we'll just leave it at that!  Suddenly Huck looked up and realized that Mom was gone?
"Oh well who gives a care - I'm surrounded by women!" he thought.  Jenn from Missasauga wanted to have
chocolate so Huck and her left to go get the Fudge oohs with us came Monica and some other girl.  Monica and
the other girl went to bed while Jenn and Huck went on a walk with chocolate.  That's enough of that part of the
story.  Of course Miller I would have passed the test(but I got her number).  I report that sadly, but it was fun
talking till five in the morning when her guide leader appeared worried as to where she had been.  It was
mentioned to her as she was walking with her leader that they hoped that she had liked her first moot because it
might be her last! Like all we were doing was talking geez!  Yeah Mike went to bed at 530 and arose at 845
while Mom and Flynno were still asleep.  Huck began to get freshened up (there were ladies at camp) and
brushed his teeth.  Anyway, we left and everything was good.  Huck was happy cause he got to say goodbye to
everyone including Rob.  We also got a hug from one of Flynno's ORC ladies!  The drive home wasn't that
interesting but hey we saw the replacement to the Plastic-mobile!  Nice van!
