What a great story! Well done.

:tu:



[I]"I recall one man that they found, was found frozen upright in the water. And for some reason he had held on to a branch and the rescuers just cut the branch on either side of his hand and so in was brought in that condition; branch still in his hand."

...


But on a tiny island not far away, a well-packed footpath circled a tiny tree.

"I never thought I was very smart, but I was actually doing pretty well by myself then. On that small island I'd just keep running in circles," Bice says.

Wow! Thanks for sharing that story. It's so easy to lose history like that...if we don't share what we know, things get lost for ever.
