Love seeing the US girl scout uniforms, they're so different to the ones we had. Your girls look so pretty in them.

Our girl scouts/boy scouts have their origins in the UK, their founder being Robert Baden-Powell, who started the scouts in 1907. I did a quick google and learned that he was actually once engaged to Juliette Gordon Low. Thought that was quite interesting.

The friends I was with didn't want to take the tour with me. [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img] What a beautiful home Low lived in and a gorgeous city.

Great album! I was a Blue Bird first then then switched over to Brownies. I stayed in thru Junior Cadet. One of my nieces was a brownie but DD has never been in Scouts. Between soccer, dance and church there is no time. I really wish she was though. I remember scouts very fondly. Your tribute is wonderful. I'm also glad it brought you to AG!

Loved the album, Sheila! I'd like to see Bossy Amanda run a cookie booth sale! (Can't help but love that child, you know!) My DD is almost 16 and a senior cadette so the only thing to con them into doing cookie sales is the road trip they get to take, LOL!
