My Sister, the Hero
family
My sis, Tracie, is the Training Director for the King County Search and Rescue Association, a volunteer corps of rescue experts in Seattle. She's quoted and featured extensively in an article penned by a rescuee in the Washington Trails Associate Magazine. She's great. (My little bro is damn magnificent too... but I'll have to find another time to write about that.)
