A.M. Nine easy.
P.M. Went to my Eagle board of review. I passed. Really, once you get to your board of review, the hard part is over. What I mean is, there is very strict 'quality control' at the stake level. The real test is getting your Eagle project approved and actually doing it. It has been a lot of work to get my Eagle, and I'm happy to have reached this point. Technically I'm not an Eagle untill the National advancement Board approves me, but for practical purposes I can consider my work done. One interesting thing I learned at my Board of Review was that the President of the United States is actually the honary president of the BSA. (chuckle . . .considering our current President ).
Another comment one of the Board members made was that a century ago, a deal was sealed by a handshake, Today, we have seventeen pages of paperwork. Back then, your word was your bond. Sadly, that is not the case today.
