This week’s Following Juliette post is being pre-empted by my desire to spend as much time as possible with my family and friends before I head home to Alaska on Friday.  In the meantime, check out this happifying article about a centenarian who finally got to fulfill her wish of being a Girl Scout. 

 Cool things in the works for the next couple of updates: an interview with my Grandma Jean, who was a Girl Scout leader half a century ago; reflections on what I’ve learned so far in my work on the Across Generations badge; a flashback to a Wider Opportunity trip in the 70’s; and hopefully a chat with a fellow Girl Scout alumna who says scouting was one of the best parts of her growing-up.   Stay tuned!
