Nell has been found! A search group organized by the Hearty Hikers found her shortly after 2 PM today with her leash wrapped around a bush. She was hungry and thirsty but otherwise in good condition. Thanks to all who looked for her.
Gail Glass was among some friends over for dinner at my place last night and we heard about this from her. Thanks to Gail and all the other members of the Hearty Hikers who spent many hours searching for both the lost hiker and the Nell the doggie.
