When he would see lights ln>m some
rig up on a ridge he would walk
towards the I ght but it would be
gone before he could get there He

a wonderful feeling to stand up on
that ridge after dark and watch all o f
the lights of the ngs. knowing they
were coming to help u s ."
They were just getting ready to
stan the grid search when M iff was

M iff looked at his mother with
those big eyes and dimples and ask

could only be answered in 1.000
words or so. and maybe not then
After talking with M iff, he look
ed up and said " I'm tired. I |ust want
