Eagle Scout has Some AT Miles In

The Annapolis, MD Capital-Gazette Newspapers online version of 26 January 2007 carries an article by staff writer Lori Phelan about local high school sophomore Robert Andrew Morris who had just earned his Boy Scout Eagle rank at age 14.

As part of his background, the article mentions that Morris's "adventures in Scouting have taken him to the National Jamboree at Fort A. P. Hill in Virginia, various camporees, three summer camp programs at Broad Creek Scout Reservation, Appalachian Trail hikes, quite a few white water rafting trips and a three-week trip to Scotland and Ireland, where he toured the countries and attended the Scottish Jamborette in Blair Atholl, Scotland." [emphasis added]

Hmmm, I think I could do with 3 weeks in Scotland and Ireland, too.
