Many, many years ago, Mr. RR, the three children and I went to cut a Christmas tree just a few mile east of Laramie, Wyo. One of those weird, sudden blizzards came in and we were stuck off road for eight hours, the longest eight hours of my life. (Never go to cut a Christmas tree in a Volkswagon Beetle) I had packed "survival gear", so we were okay (just very cold) until the Forest Service Rangers found us. I think it helped that Mr. RR was a Forest Service Ranger at the time and we were a "priority". Actually, with the Forest Service, EVERYONE is a priority. We never left the vehicle.............except for potty breaks.

Message to all.............DO NOT LEAVE YOUR CAR!
