The day after we discovered that Pearl’s favorite stuffy Chocolate Bunny was missing–left behind on the rocks near a remote campsite about sixty miles from Taos–Michael put in a call to the forest service office near Tres Piedras. Sure enough, someone special answered: an officer named John. When John heard that a five-year-old girl was grieving her lost bunny he said he’d do what he could to help. News came within hours: Chocolate Bunny was safe, recovered from the rocks, and now awaiting a ride home from Tres Piedras. She should be home by the weekend. Rescued by a “local hero” who works for the U.S. Forest Service. Thank you John!
