VERY glad to hear their OK.

Would like to know the story.  I mean, it is part of being a member of  
a family/community...  :-)

Probably without even really being aware of it, they became an  
important part of what was/is going on.

I was at L-Rod's today and notes were up asking anyone with info to  
let someone know.  People discussed what they saw about the trail and  
weather conditions for that area when they went through.

We wish them the best of luck and happiness and hope that they were  
(and will continue) following their hearts and heads.
