Happy Ending

Uinta Mountains.......Boy Scout camping trip........Jared Ropelato got lost. But since he had learned not to panic, and had also learned to build a lean-to, in the event that he got lost, he was okay until he was found. He was missing for almost 24 hours.

It is really starting to look as if teaching children some proactive steps to take when and if they are lost would be a good idea. As a nation, we need to lose the idea that "those things will never happen to us". I am always happy to blog about a story with a happy outcome.

Here's what Jared had to say about the whole thing: "Asked if he would still go camping after his overnight ordeal, Jared simply said "yeah."..........The Boston Globe

Does Anyone Know This Child?

Little Boy Found In Maine

How sad. This little boy was found deceased, wrapped in a blanket, at the edge of a driveway. He was about 3' 8", and maybe 45 lbs. I thought about Kyron Horman when I saw this, but I can tell, by all of his pictures, that Kyron has begun to grow in his permanant teeth, and this little boy still has his baby teeth. Maine also called Oregon and checked, so I am pretty sure that he is not Kyron. If anyone glancing at my blog can help, here is his computer enhanced image.

Thanks,all, for looking. I hope this gets solved.
