I got a call over the weekend where they wanted me to submit some names of people who were interested in helping.

It was overwhelming to see how many people have zero ability to get health care and immunizations and things like that.

Hearing the human spirit stories of her experience was striking. She treated so many victims and they all had a story about so much devastation, and yet they were still appreciative and grateful for the treatment that they were being given.

I called her and she didn't even hesitate. She immediately said she wanted to go.

Most of the covered bridges have non-profit groups that adopt the bridge for the weekend. They sell light refreshments, our souvenirs and help people get from bridge to bridge.

There is no such thing as a weekend for me when I'm at home on my ranch in Oregon.
