GIRL SCOUT EXTRAVAGANZA WEEKEND!
So, Charlotte, not satisfied with what she's got on her plate (working at the farm, dealing with the kids-and me- , hosting guests while I'm gone, leader of the revolutionary front of the PTG in St. Joseph's School) she has decided to volunteer to be a girl scout troop leader......!

So, she finally got all her papers, permits, notarized forms, signed letters, framed diplomas, initiation hazings, and all kine stuff...when she was told that the girl scouts had to be in the Veteran's day parade this past Saturday, set up flags at 7:30 AM Sunday at the Veterans cemetery (and take them down at 1:30), and be present at the inauguration ceremony of the new Veteran's Center here in Hilo on Monday at 11:30 (they told her about this last Tuesday, and she hasn't officially started her troop yet)!

So, being the "go-getter" that she is, she gather up some magical powers and got the whole thing together! wow!

So here is the Troop during the parade:

Hilo's Mayor: Harry Kim in the parade



Flags at the Veteran's Cemetery:
And at the inauguration of the Veteran's Center:


Here they are taking some salt in ti leaves to use during the blessing ceremony

and here they are standing right next to Governor Lingle during the blessing of the building


then the girls got to go in a tour of the facility

and then Charlotte wonders why she feels tired!?

how does she do that?
I don't know,
what makes her so good?
she's the pinball wizard
there has to be a twist!
