The Pathfinders

Yay!! There aren't any photos from Pathfinders posted yet! I get to be
the first one!! :-) This is the best photo of Pete that I've been able
to find so far.

Most, if not all, of my time with Pete was spent in Pathfinders. :-)
My first impression of him was as our drill master. :-) (Is that what
he was called? It was years ago. :-) ) I was hoping to find photos of
him with the drill team, but I haven't found any yet. Anyway, I
remember my first Pathfinder Jamboree at Sunset Lake. I'd only been in
the club for a short time since I joined late in the year. We all
assembled in formation outside our cabins and Pete marched us all the
way through the camp to the cafeteria and then INTO the cafeteria for
breakfast. I was a little embarrassed (and I don't think I was the
only one!!) because the other Pathfinder clubs who were already in the
cafeteria all looked at us as we came in, of course. :-) Pete had to
run ahead of us (and I think Rachelle did too) to hold the doors open
for us. Even though it was slightly embarrassing (you have to remember
I was only 10 at the time :-) ) it was also a proud moment to be there
with "MY" club and feel like Pete was proud of us. :-) Also, I
remember that on our way through the camp we had a chant. I don't know
if we ever used it other than that one time. Maybe Pete just made it
up. But I remember thinking that it was really great and I meant to
remember it, but obviously I didn't. I should have written it
down. :-) It started out something like "We are the Bellevue
Sojourners . . . " Does Pete or Rachelle or anyone else reading this
remember it? :-)

Pete, looking forward to your recovery! My prayers are with both you
and Rachelle.

Love, Amanda
