Hi Troop 617

Mrs. Gamble here. Just wanted to let those of  you who are following this Philmont Blog know that Ken has not been able to send any more pics as they've gotten deeper into the backcountry. I've posted all the ones they were able to get through, and now they aren't even texting. So sorry! But lots of pics will soon be added as they get back into range and start their trip home.

More Adventures!
