When my mother volunteered to help with my sister's Brownie troop, I was too young to notice I was surrounded by girls wondering why the hell I was there.

One time they were at Rouge Park or Hines...and while everyone was warned severly about getting too close to the 'river'...one little girl fell in. I remember her being taken away by ambulance...and vaguely remember it was because of the water's toxicity, not from any injury.


Funny how some things stick in the noggin.



BTW, I think the timing of Girl Scout cookie delivery is a conspiracy to have MOST folk deeply into sugar shock while doing their taxes.
