The more you read the more the whole family just seems like a bunch of giant idiots who you probably shouldn't trust. Glad she's safe but yeah. Kinda shitty to waste people's time, resources, and emotional energy looking for a missing person who it turns out isn't really missing.

How often does someone skip town without telling anyone and deliberately turns their phone off for the entire trip?

I don't know an exact number but for clearly unstable, intoxicated, perhaps drug addled 20-30 somethings in love, one of which is facing jail time, probably a lot more frequently than you appear to suspect.

I'll just point out, there was a single individual primarily leading this "man hunt".

I suspect Greg felt a social pressure to voice his concerns given the realities, but he made a single comment based on what I'm aware of currently. Aside from "she's fine everyone".

yeah but how do you prove it without a cooperative victim

In notoriously tough-on-crime LA, they subpoena the victims to court and threaten to arrest them if they don't show up. then they put them on the stand and browbeat them until they start crying and admit to some or all of the conduct occurring. Results are mixed.

The same people who couldn't even convict OJ Simpson? Bold strategy

I'm really not trying to slam you man, but how do you come to the conclusion she never planned to return. 

It's not unreasonable to think that MIGHT have occurred or been the plan, but this really looks more like an impulsive choice by 2 not so logical people who were "in love"for a road trip prior to potential court issues.

It was hers. It wasn't stolen.

Cops said they found them because the license plate matched a car reported as stolen.  My best guess is her mom reported it as such to help with the search.

yeah this is where i got the "stolen car" thing from but in retrospect the above is likely correct.

Thanks for the clarification,  missed it, and that certainly tracks.

Now that she's safe, I feel less shitty about my initial thoughts when this story broke.  Here's the article again that Twice linked on first page of thread: https://www.durangoherald.com/articles/farmington-high-school-grad-tells-a-story-of-forgiveness/

My takeaway from the article, the Astros won another World Series and I'm just now learning about it. Raise the banner!!!

I did Ft Worth - Seattle in 4 days in February on a Suzuki 750. Took basically the same route with a few desert shortcuts. It rained from El Paso to Portland.

I did Austin-Bastrop-Lockhart-Austin in 3 days. I was on an old mountain bike that my housemate had borrowed and lowered the seat an inch without telling me. This caused my knee to blow up, plus for some reason a couple of the gears wouldn't sync up. I was semi-crippled by Creedmoor but in my pride I turned down a chance to heave it into the back of a truck and ride into Austin. By the time I hit South Congress, it was a slight downhill all the way to the river and I just smoooooved on in.

My dentist uses regular dentist's chairs, but I guess car seats would work too.

I had to get back to Seattle by a certain date or I was AWOL. Made it with 6 hours to spare. No shit about the rain though. It was the worst in BFE Southern desert between Lordsburg, NM and Tucson, AZ. Lightened up across Mohave, Bakersfield and then I got to Stockton, hit 5 and the rain came back with a fucking vengeance. Stopped in Weed tired and soaking wet, got a mercy bowl of stew from a cafe waitress, meanwhile her boyfriend stole my boombox off my bike. So no tunes for the last 500 miles. At least it stopped raining when I got to Portland.

But, umm, she's verified okay, right?

I did and a friend of mine married one. Interestingly 2 of the girls in the group became nuns. @Beau Vine's wife probably knows who I am talking about.

My best friend in grad school had a girl dump him for another girl.  We gave him unmerciful shit about that.

He was having threesomes with both of them before he got dumped.  

That scenario is about as predictable as a girl with a shitty father needing love and attention so bad she’s unwilling to press charges and perfectly willing to run off with the guy who beats her.

Sure, but the real question is, how many good CFS places are between Texas and Oregon?

I bet the number is surprisingly high. You're in Texas for a hot minute before hitting New Mexico and depending on the route some major cities could be in the mix. I would hypothesize the number at 10.

Legit looking place in Denver

I don’t see how the Kia minivan is any different from any other minivan, to get extra special saltiness.

He was not.  He didn't know the other girl.  He and I were at a bar right after she dumped him and we saw her there with the other girl.  A couple of days later, she officially broke the news to him.  

It was honestly pretty devastating, but because he was my best friend, I repeatedly pointed out that he was apparently so unfulfilling that she not only dumped him, she dumped the entire male race.

All I know is that 40+ years ago, we were in Carlsbad with my grandparents (taking young Brisket to see the caverns), and my S. Texas grandpa ordered biscuits and gravy at breakfast.  They brought him mediocre biscuits....with a bowl of brown gravy.

Grandpa looked a lot like this that morning...

Did you point out that, while fairly feminine, he just wasn’t feminine enough?

Say what you will, but they knew how to peg like nobody's business.

According to friends of mine.
