Rob's Pick for 1/20


This knot tying guide, I think, this came from a Scouting kit my ad put together when I was in the Cub Scouts. It's followed me for years, from place to place, its existence never questioned.

I eventually learned to tie all the knots on guide, without actually consulting the vinyl placard or touching the ropes, natch.  I went on to teach at a Scout Camp, knot tying specifically, without digging through my mountain of stuff to find this guide to use during my demonstrations.

And if Dax ever follows in my footsteps and joins the Scouts and I find myself teaching him, I doubt I will think to track this thing down to aid him.

Nice try Dad. Gone.

Fate: Uncertain?
