Search team

Our youngest son Anthony has been part of a volunteer team searching for two men missing in the Tongaririo National Park for the last six days.
Conditions are difficult, muddy, wet & cold but no luck yet.
Hopes must be fading by now as it's winter & with some snow.

Very proud of him for being a member of this essential service!

Three good things:
1. Volunteers
2. Starbucks when you're wanting a hot coffee.
3. Bruce Forsyth who has sadly died today, he gave much pleasure over his lifetime on stages & screen.
'Nice to see you, to see you nice!'
Wow great that Ants is one of the Volunteers the conditions sound pretty rough down there for them..
I did a Bruce Forsyth quote yesterday arvo to my son... and then had to explain myself.. hadn't thought about him for years...

@busylady Yes it's great that there are so many willing to give up some days pay & commitments to volunteer. I would be so glad if someone went out searching for our loved ones though!

A lovely image of Ants as he gives up his time to help search. A rather cold and miserable place to be lost.
