The Kim story reflexively comes to mind whenever I hear of others going through a harrowing experience stranded in their vehicle in the Pacific Northwest.

Fortunately, this situation had a better outcome and no children were imperiled. But there were other angles, such as this couple is older and they both have diabetes.

This couple was rescued by alert passerby with 4x4 vehicles.

I'd prefer backgammon to cribbage. At the moment the only game in the car is cards (with knot tutorials on them).
