Mel said that Wednesday, Oz had a close encounter of the "snake" kind. As Oz walked through the tall grass he must have stepped on the tail of a snake. The snake then wrapped up around his leg. (Remember this is Austin the one who ALWAYS wears shorts.)
Austin shook his leg and got the snake off then the snake came back after him. Luckily, Mel was only a short distance away. Austin made it over to Mel before he had a total melt-down. Though a lot shaken and very disturbed, Austin stuck it out and stayed at camp even though Mel came home the next day. From the way they described the snake it was a small grass snake, skinny and green - but snake, never-the-less!!
We will write more when Oz gets home from camp and let you know how the rest of the week went!!

I wonder if he could scream like a little girl, just like his dad did at the reunion where we were waiting to meet the rafts?!?!
On a side note, did anyone offer to boil Austin's leg? How GROSS!!!!
Wow, Austin! What a scare. Other than that, I hope you had a good time at scout camp and earned lots of merit badges. Love ya, Grandma Burch
