Awful! I can’t read the article on my iPad, but wow, what a tale it sounds like!
The pictures I put on the blog are ref only. The link should get you to the article. Let me know if you can read the link. If not then I have to rethink how I put up the stories. I think they used this story as background to make a movie.
