Home Safe and Sound!!

Erica and Abbey have been found safe and sound! They were found yesterday in the late afternoon after Erica was able to get a short cell phone connection and called her mother, they were located shortly after that. While they were extremely hungry and had a few bruises they are fine. Their excursion started in Denali National Park and was supposed to end where we live at the Homestead but they started to follow the wrong river and before they knew it they were completely lost. They had very little food and when they realized that they were lost started to ration it, they had one granola bar left when they were found. Both of them are going to continue working for Denali Princess Wilderness Lodge. Erica flew out today to go to her sisters wedding in Texas, she was supposed to leave last Sunday. There have been several calls from major TV show for follow up stories. Inside Edition and E.T. are a few including interviews with People magazine. They pre-recorded an interview with Good Morning America this morning. They cannot believe all of the attention they are getting, they don't really see it as a big deal! I am so happy they are safe, Erica came to see me this morning at work. I gave her a huge hug and then yelled at her, I don't think she knows how bad she scared me! Anyway thank you everyone for your concern....the last week has been very "sureal".
