Yukon Travels
A Lone Scout's Journey

A Japanese princess named Rie gave me the nickname Yukon when I was eight. She said it translates into "Brave Warrior." I'd like to think it fits perfectly. These pages will detail my journey as a Boy Scouts of America Lone Scout as I work toward eventually receiving my Eagle Scout award. I hope you find them interesting and useful.

The bad news is:

Mom's terrible with paperwork. Even though I've completed second class and am 95% done with a lot of different badges, we have a hard time getting everything in order :-(.

The good news is:

We found a GREAT troop that is homeschool-friendly and seems to fit our needs! So we are no longer Lone Scouting -- instead, we are members of Troop 220. I'm still going to leave these pages up as a reference, and also so my grandparents and other family can watch my progress.

Yours in Scouting,

David AND ELISHA
