I started out as a Brownie. I “flew up” into girl scouts as soon as I was able to do so. I think it was about 11 years old or so. At that time, we worked for merit badges and went on camping trips or went to camp in the summer time. I did all of those things.

Camp was fantastic and went for a week. We lived in cabins near a lake. Sometimes it was cool in the mornings but it was awesome during the day and the campfires at night were terrific. Most of the girls cried when it was the night before we went home. But the fun things were when we were making things. At my age, I was allowed to use knives to cut craft items with so it was great to have something that I would call a safety utility knife to use for a whole raft of things we did.

These days, it looks a lot like a retractable blade. In those days, it was more like one of those swiss army knives with a corkscrew, a can opener, a fork and several other things. I loved the thing and I have no idea whatsoever what happened to it in the years since then. Mom and Dad had a huge garage sale before they moved so it probably got sold. Too bad. It was a great little knife.
