Great to read about the times when children actually played outside and life was more than just computers, phones and electronics!
It would have been hard to have just walked away and left the boys, even to get help. I think most people would have wanted to help save them in the moment. Kind of a gut reaction and common sense kicks in later, possibly when it's too late!
Great you were all safely rescued and here to share the story.
I'm glad it ended well too! I don't recall how long they'd been there but I know they were all-but exhausted.
