The Sept/Oct 2009 issue of Scouting Magazine features the 1960 Yosemite Area JSP (provided by Kelly Williams) but states, "You might recognize its most-prominent element?if you happened to visit Yellowstone Park prior to 1969: The Wawona Tree."   Uh, fellas, that would be Yosemite National Park.

  After the PatchBlanket got hacked, it took several weeks to get back online. I checked daily to see if it was up, then went on to my other favorite (non-patch trading) forums. It seemed like Jason's 2009 NOAC blog took the place of the forum in terms of patch news and commentary, but of course there's no discussion aspect....Read More

My Name/Number Collection Dilemna

As I went around the room and talked to each of them I offered to give them equal time on the blog. Since I was kind of a roving patch reporter I even offered to shoot quick commercials and...Read More
