1
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: What it's that time, time, Time, Time, Luck and Load.

2
00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 2: The Michael vari Show is on the air.

3
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 3: Devastating floods in Texas. The depth all continues to rise statewide.

4
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 3: At least seventy eight people have died, sixty eight of

5
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:25,440
Speaker 3: them in Kerr County, including twenty eight children. The county

6
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 3: was hardest hit when the Guadalupe River rose to its

7
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 3: second highest level ever recorded. Rescuers continue to search for

8
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 3: those still unaccounted for.

9
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 4: Mostacious load a voice like the.

10
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 2: County.

11
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 4: It's the food.

12
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 5: The devastation is unbelievable. How these kids survived in any

13
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 5: of these camps along the river is nothing short of

14
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 5: a miracle.

15
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 6: We went to bed thinking it's just a normal thunderstorm.

16
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,119
Speaker 6: One minute you see lightning strike next to your cabin,

17
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 6: and next to you you hear waters coming up, and

18
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,959
Speaker 6: you have kids running just trying to get to other cabins,

19
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 6: trying to get to safety. And the next morning we

20
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 6: had some of the older girls went back to their

21
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 6: cabin seat they could find anything. I remember one girl

22
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 6: walked out with her bible and she was so happy

23
00:01:55,800 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 6: just to have her bible. Like I put on my

24
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 6: name tag because I didn't. I was scared that if

25
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 6: water's coming out next to our other cabins, that our

26
00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 6: cabin might be next, and I would just put it

27
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,520
Speaker 6: on just for sake, keeping saying if in my head,

28
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 6: I was saying, if if something does happened and I

29
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 6: do get swept away, at least I'll have my name

30
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 6: on my body.

31
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 2: My friend Nay name was, that's so funny.

32
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 7: I've been scrolling.

33
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 8: I've been scrolling through videos and pictures on my mom's

34
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 8: phone and watching it over and over again for dancing

35
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 8: when she's excited. Yeah she was, she was, so I

36
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 8: just missed her so much time.

37
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:15,040
Speaker 9: Oh nevery hoy.

38
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 2: Oh blame.

39
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 4: Me now, ba say.

40
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 10: I come.

41
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 11: To the Oh bla me now say.

42
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 1: To be.

43
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 7: There's no way, no good way to start a program

44
00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 7: like this. My wife said, that's the first time you

45
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 7: have tossed in turn all night in a long time.

46
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 7: Election night. A few things that put me on edge,

47
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 7: but nothing quite like this. Natural disasters and even high

48
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 7: death tolls of natural disasters, we've sort of become numb

49
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 7: to them because there's one happening it seems all the time.

50
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 7: They don't happen more often. They're just worthy of coverage

51
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:46,600
Speaker 7: because they grip your attention. But there's something about children.

52
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 7: As a parent, as a grandparent, as an aunt, as

53
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 7: an uncle, as a teacher, as a coach, as a

54
00:04:55,320 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 7: human being, there's just something about innocent, precious children. And

55
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 7: in this case, our hearts would go out to Kerrville,

56
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:15,480
Speaker 7: Kerr County, and Travis County, but there is also a

57
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 7: very very strong Houston connection, and as it would happen,

58
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,679
Speaker 7: a number of our listeners, not just in the greater

59
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 7: Houston area, but across the state, have connections to many

60
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 7: of the children who were involved. There are still at

61
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 7: last check, let me see the numbers, so I don't

62
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 7: get it wrong. There are still over forty people missing.

63
00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 7: But I choose to look at the fact that over

64
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 7: eight hundred fifty people were rescued, and hopefully more over

65
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 7: eight one hundred fifty people rescued, some of those incredibly daring.

66
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 7: There's a story about a young man in the Coastguard

67
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 7: who deserves a parade in his honor, because if you

68
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:22,880
Speaker 7: are fortunate enough to be My understanding is it's camp lahunta.

69
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 7: It's not pronounced in the pure Spanish as lajunta. If

70
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 7: I'm wrong on that, feel free to email me and

71
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 7: tell me this fella saved more lives than anybody on

72
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 7: his first ever run of this sort and boy, did

73
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 7: he ever show out. This guy absolutely showed up to

74
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 7: save lives. And did he ever. I have had communication

75
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 7: through mutual friends with a number of families that were

76
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 7: involved over the weekend. Either their children were rescued, or

77
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 7: their children were missing, or they got the bad news.

78
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,719
Speaker 7: I have invited every single one of them to call

79
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,320
Speaker 7: the show, but I have not done what I would

80
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 7: normally do, which is push people and try to guilt

81
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 7: people into why they must come on the show too

82
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 7: much respect for what they're going on. But there were

83
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 7: also some very positive stories. Obviously a rescue is of

84
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 7: rescue and recovery and seeming miracles in the midst of

85
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 7: all of this. I would love to have you join

86
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 7: the show, whatever your issue. Connection seven one three nine

87
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 7: nine nine one thousand. This will be a call driven

88
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 7: show from start to finish. Seven one three nine nine

89
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 7: nine one thousand. Let me say this, I'm very well

90
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 7: aware of doctor Christina propsed at Bluefish MD, part of

91
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 7: the Memorial Herman system, and yes, we will expose everything

92
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 7: she said, just not right now. I'm very well aware

93
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 7: of thoughts on cloud seating and how that affects rain,

94
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 7: and we will discuss that, just not right now. I

95
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 7: will comment on the weather advisory because I think it

96
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 7: was more than sufficient and I don't think there's anyone

97
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 7: to blame. But this is not the conspiracy show, This

98
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 7: is not the anger show, this is not the accountability show.

99
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,240
Speaker 2: The Michael Barry Show, Michael Barry.

100
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 7: Show, seven one thousand. Dell Len, you are first up.

101
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:32,000
Speaker 7: Go ahead, my dear.

102
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 12: Gosh.

103
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 13: I feel honored to be the first up. I have

104
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,320
Speaker 13: not not a direct connection to Camp. Missed it because

105
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 13: I see it from the outsider.

106
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 10: I am.

107
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:46,439
Speaker 13: I will protect my partner. My partner of twenty five

108
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 13: years was a Mystic girl from about nineteen seventy four

109
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 13: through probably the mid eighties. She camped through her whole

110
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,080
Speaker 13: young life and then went back into camp for when

111
00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 13: she and I got together, I heard about Camp Stick Forever,

112
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 13: the influence on her, the people out there, the Christian influence,

113
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 13: and of the women that come out of Mystic We're

114
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 13: talking about generations, Michael, of strong women that have come

115
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 13: through that camp. I get emotional I think about it

116
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 13: because we're talking about a camp that started in nineteen

117
00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 13: twenty six. Next year would have been their one hundredth anniversary.

118
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 13: That she had been receiving emails about going out there

119
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:31,240
Speaker 13: for this big, huge anniversary. But she had described to

120
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 13: me over the years of how much this camp influenced her,

121
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 13: and about I would say about ten to maybe fifteen

122
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 13: years ago, she took me out there and I saw

123
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,200
Speaker 13: it for myself, and it was about this coming year.

124
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,840
Speaker 13: It was around July fourth weekend, and it was everything

125
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,719
Speaker 13: that she had ever described to me. The women that

126
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 13: are out there, and the leader, the man who gave

127
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 13: his life to say that to save the young girls

128
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 13: in the cabin, had a profound, profound influence on her

129
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 13: and all those girls out there. And my my, my

130
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 13: opinion of it, and what I see from her is

131
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 13: that I worry about the campground going forward because this

132
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 13: is a lot to put on these girls on this

133
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 13: camp ground to come through the recovery of this, the

134
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 13: loss of the girls out there, and I just hope

135
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 13: that for the future that this campground can survive because

136
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 13: I don't think we as Texans really know the impact

137
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,640
Speaker 13: and the girls that have come through that camp it's

138
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 13: not a program, but have come through this camp. I

139
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 13: mean the person that I'm with was she was out

140
00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 13: there with I mean, oh Lbj's grandchildren and all. I

141
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 13: mean there there are some very very uh I don't

142
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 13: I won't say influential, but a lot of girls that

143
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 13: have come through this this camp that are making their

144
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:02,600
Speaker 13: way today, whether it's whether they're in their team, their twenties, thirties, forties, fifties, sixties.

145
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 13: My partner went to camp with the other with the

146
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 13: other camp leader that gave her life at Heart of

147
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 13: the Hills. She was at camp with her, and that

148
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 13: was Rasdale has Janie Ragsdale. She went to camp with her,

149
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 13: and she said just the profile and influence that she

150
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 13: had on all of us out there as campers at

151
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 13: the time. The people that gave their lives, as she says,

152
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 13: she said, they were the nurturers of the flock, and

153
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 13: they protected their flock first, and they gave their lives

154
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 13: to their flock. And she said, and it does not

155
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 13: surprise me at all that the two people that the

156
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,200
Speaker 13: worst that were probably the most influential people out there,

157
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 13: Janie and mister and Dick Eastman, gave their lives for

158
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,040
Speaker 13: this because she said they they certainly were that for

159
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 13: all of us. She was, like I said, at Camper,

160
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 13: you know, forty years ago.

161
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 7: So I have heard from people who went there more

162
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 7: years ago than that, and as recently as a few

163
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:07,760
Speaker 7: years ago. And it's one of those things. I didn't

164
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 7: go to camp, and my kids didn't go to camp.

165
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 7: Crockett and Michael both went to the Young Life Bibles

166
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 7: Study camp in Colorado, where you hike all day and

167
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 7: then you study the Bible on the side of the

168
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,440
Speaker 7: mountain until you reach the top and you come back

169
00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,640
Speaker 7: down and repeat the process and you sleep outdoors. And

170
00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:29,640
Speaker 7: they loved it. But we were not a camp family.

171
00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 7: I did not grow up a camp family. But I

172
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 7: have so many friends and I always make it my

173
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 7: point to interact with the kids when they are around,

174
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 7: and you know, what are you doing this summer? What

175
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 7: are your grades? What do you want to do? And

176
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:50,920
Speaker 7: these camps have such a big influence, such grounding on

177
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,600
Speaker 7: these kids, and I think it says a lot about

178
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 7: the camp how many how those kids vie to go

179
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 7: back and be account because they looked up to their

180
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:10,080
Speaker 7: counselor so much and had such respect for their counselors

181
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 7: and the role of their counselor and the role their

182
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 7: counselor had on them that they too. You know, you

183
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 7: think about Chloe Childress. She's just finished high school, she's

184
00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 7: got the summer off. She could have done anything. She

185
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 7: could have gone on the senior trip, she could have vacation,

186
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 7: she could have whatevery eighteen year old wants to do.

187
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 7: She could have laid up in bed and played video

188
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 7: games or sent lol text to her friends. But it

189
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,959
Speaker 7: was important to her to go spend presumably a month

190
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 7: and be a camp counselor at the camp that she

191
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 7: had attended as a kid. And she's still a kid herself.

192
00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 7: In my opinion, I have a number of friends who

193
00:13:54,960 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 7: were who were friends with that family. Once I posted

194
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,120
Speaker 7: that we were going to be talking about this today,

195
00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,360
Speaker 7: how many people I knew that we're close to those

196
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 7: families and the one degree of separation in some cases

197
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 7: direct contact. Both Michael and Crockett knew Gloated childrens. She's

198
00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 7: in between them in their years of high school.

199
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:22,400
Speaker 2: But it's.

200
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 7: It's just amazing what a small town Houston becomes when

201
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 7: something like this happens. It's it's amazing how connected people are.

202
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 7: And my wife not having grown up here, said how

203
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 7: does this happen as big as the city is, And

204
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 7: I said, well, every parent grew up somewhere, so they

205
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 7: have their you know, the Vin dram. They have their

206
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 7: circle of people that they knew, and if they grew

207
00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 7: up in Houston, especially in West Houston, then they're going

208
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 7: to know a lot of people. Then their wife the same.

209
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:03,240
Speaker 7: Then the father went to played ball, likely went to college,

210
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 7: very likely to A and M or ut or Tech.

211
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:12,360
Speaker 7: And then they got out and they started working and

212
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 7: everyone they interact with that they work with over the years,

213
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 7: and then maybe they're in a men's group, the family's

214
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 7: in a church. They then the kids play ball or

215
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 7: cheer or volleyball or track, and you get to know

216
00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 7: those families and over a period of time, before you

217
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 7: know it, you have a very wide circle of friends

218
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 7: that when something like this happens, becomes much more close knit.

219
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 7: Situations like this do not build character, They reveal it.

220
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 7: And it's amazing. I have seen it seven one, three, nine, nine, nine, one.

221
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 2: Thousand, The Michael Barry Show, Michael Barry.

Speaker 7: Czar Our friend of mine, Brent Dillon, and his wife Lisa,

225

Speaker 7: you this because I know you may know him because

227
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 7: he donated to your causes. He owned text escape services,

228
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 7: which he has since sold. I don't have a child.

229
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 7: I cannot even imagine the pain of losing one someone else.

230
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 7: Seven one, three, nine, nine, one thousand. We'll get to

231
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 7: your calls. Posted say their name for the girls of

232
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 7: Camp Missed It, Kerrville, Texas, July twenty fifth, an editorial

233
00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:49,880
Speaker 7: note praying all these girls will return to their families.

234
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 7: I do not have confirmation if these beautiful girls have

235
00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,520
Speaker 7: been found, return to their families, still missing, or eternally

236
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 7: passed into father's arms. When you pass through the waters,

237
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 7: I will be with you as a forty three two

238
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 7: Jesus wept, John eleven thirty five. I do not know

239
00:17:09,080 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 7: if these names. I thought when I clipped this that

240
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 7: these were girls who had not made it. It is

241
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,359
Speaker 7: my hope that I will read a name and this

242
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,840
Speaker 7: girl has made it. That would be good news. I

243
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 7: know that Eloise Peck had passed, but for each one

244
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:31,120
Speaker 7: they posted a little statement about them, and I thought

245
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 7: about how gut wrenching, it would be. These clearly came

246
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,600
Speaker 7: from the mothers and fathers, probably mostly the mothers. Just

247
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:43,240

262
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 7: about justice and grace. Marie Martha's curious and kind who

263
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 7: might have discovered a cure or at least cure someone's loneliness.

264
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,719
Speaker 7: That's where it was said Catherine Feruso, who I have

265
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 7: a number of friends very close to this family, talked

266
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:58,320

Speaker 7: Isabella Isy when future firefighter or astronaut, either way, she

272
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:22,240

Speaker 7: Natalie Jimen is fluent in two languages and learning a third,

275
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 7: already bridging worlds. That's not all of the girls, that's

276
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 7: just who was posted in that particular lest I heard

277
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 7: a story about Camp Lahunta. I think they say La

278
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:47,120
Speaker 7: Hunt to Lahunta or Niciella Junta. Correct me if I'm wrong.

279
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 7: At Camp La Hunt that Campela Hunter managed. The boys

280
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 7: can't manage not to lose a kid. They were very,

281
00:19:55,640 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 7: very lucky but I read a story in and then

282
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 7: confirmed with some folks that had firsthand knowledge that some

283
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 7: of the councilors were Eagle Scouts. So these kids are

284
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 7: counselors who were just there themselves the year before. They're

285
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,639
Speaker 7: eighteen nineteen years old, and they grabbed their boys and

286
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 7: they put them up on the rafters inside the cabin.

287
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 7: These are pretty rudimentary cabins. It sounds like they grabbed

288
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 7: their boys and put them up on the cabins and

289
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,320
Speaker 7: then crawled up there themselves. As the boys were washing by,

290
00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 7: they would pull them out of the water and put

291
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:32,400
Speaker 7: them up there. They crawled up on the rafters as

292
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 7: the floodwaters rose. If the waters continue to rise, you

293
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,360
Speaker 7: can't get out from inside the roof, right, These are

294
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 7: a frame structures. They're standing on the rafters and holding

295
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 7: probably two by fours for life, and the water managed

296
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 7: to stop mercifully at the bottom of the rafters. So

297
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,680
Speaker 7: they're standing in water that has risen that high inside

298
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 7: their cabin and they managed to survive until presumably the

299
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:09,040
Speaker 7: floodwaters receiding. It's an incredible story. There are so many

300
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 7: incredible stories. I wish every single one of them could

301
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 7: be a rescue. That's that's that would be a this

302
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 7: would be a glorious story. US Coastguard rescue swimmer and

303
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,399
Speaker 7: petty Officer Scott Ruskin directly saved and astonishing one hundred

304
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 7: and sixty five victims. This was the first rescue mission

305
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 7: of his career and he was the only trioch coordinator

306
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 7: at the scene.

307
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 2: Wow.

308
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,439

309
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:45,400

310
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 7: of amazing, Nothing short of amazing, Virginia. You're on the

00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 14: I'm eighty two years old and I went to Camp

314
00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 14: Miss Stick right years. My children went for seven years,

315
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 14: and my grandchildren also went. This is just so heartbreaking

316
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 14: to me. Every time I see the pictures, I think about, well,

317
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 14: that's where I stayed, that was my cabin I stayed

318
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:18,199
Speaker 14: in it. It's just a horrible, horrible thing and it

319
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 14: has just affected, like you said, so many people all

320
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 14: over the United States. And there were people that when

321
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 14: I was at camp that came from Mexico. So it's

322
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 14: a sad, sad thing, and I just wanted to share

323
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 14: my story, Virginia.

324
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 7: How did it come to pass that you started going

325
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 7: to Camp Mystic in the first place?

326
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 14: Well, in Galveston, and a lot of the kids went.

327
00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 14: They all went to Mystic or Waltimore Interesting, and the

328
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 14: guys would go to Stuart Orla Janta. It was just

329
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 14: a thing that everybody in Calveston did, and we loved

330
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 14: it so.

331
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 7: Much, so so much so, I had not I had

332
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 7: vaguely heard of Heart of the Hills. I don't know

333
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 7: how big it is. It's small, okay, but I have

334
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 7: a number of friends. In fact, I coached baseball against

335
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 7: the guy that owns at X, which is the same

336
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:17,840
Speaker 7: family that does Camp Longhorn. Or is that Camp Ozark?

337
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 7: Maybe it's maybe it's as Ark and at X. But anyway,

338
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,440
Speaker 7: I know that that is a big deal. The kids

339
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,240
Speaker 7: look forward to that all year long. And it seems

340
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,200
Speaker 7: to be the case that once they start at one camp,

341
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,959
Speaker 7: they go back to that camp. They look forward to it.

342
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,399
Speaker 7: They and they all want to go back and be

343
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 7: a counselor. It's it's a pretty neat deal. It's it's

344
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 7: obviously if you went and then put your own kids

345
00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 7: through it, you think it's a great idea.

346
00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 14: And I was a counselor. Also I had met my

347
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,199
Speaker 14: husband at Texas Tech and then we came back. He

348
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 14: was from Currville, and so that year I was a counselor.

349
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 14: We got together more and ended up getting married. But

350
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 14: that town is a wonderful town, a beautiful town, hunt was.

351
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 14: You know, everything up there is just just wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.

352
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,160
Speaker 7: It is a wonderful place, prosper comfort. Purrville in the news,

353
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,800

357
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:39,760

358
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 7: part of the hills was not. My understanding is there

359
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 7: are some other camps dotting the landscape or lawn there

360
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 7: that were in between sessions mercifully or it might have

361
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 7: even been worse. It is not only children at camp

362
00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:04,480
Speaker 7: who perished. There were folks, as you might imagine July fourth,

363
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 7: who were there on vacation with their families. Who hasn't

Speaker 1: The impact Jeff had on his family at rodeos and

390
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,760
Speaker 1: other family events, Jason saw it firsthand.

391
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:28,000

392
00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 12: his mentored over the years. And I'm sure I've spoke

393
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,640
Speaker 12: with a young man over there just a few minutes ago.

394
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 12: He's had a heck of an impact on a.

395
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 7: Lot of people.

396
00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:38,760
Speaker 9: Laughed.

397
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: In wake of the floods, Jason is still trying to

398
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,760
Speaker 1: find hope for Jeff's wife, Amber and their son Shiloh.

399
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 12: I'm still praying to God at the other to her

400
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 12: found safe.

401
00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,439
Speaker 1: And Jeff Wilson had just been recently recognized for thirty

402
00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 1: years of service to humble ID. Now again, his wife,

403
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,919
Speaker 1: Amber and son Shiloh are still missing in Anyone who

404
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 1: has seen them is as to contact authorities in Kerr County.

405
00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 7: Julia, you're on the Michael Berry Show. Julia sent an

406
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 7: email earlier, and I asked her to give us a

407
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:22,480
Speaker 7: call because I thought she had a beautiful story to tell. Yes, ma'am.

408
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 10: So it's been really tragic in our community. I know

409
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 10: families who have lost daughters, and I know families who

410
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 10: have gotten their daughter's home safe. I'm twenty six and

411
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 10: I went to Mystic for eight wonderful summers, and there

412
00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 10: have been some beautiful things that have come out of this.

413
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 10: There have been really heroic counselors. And I saw something

414
00:27:55,280 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 10: really wonderful about Dicky Flint went to camp, and I

415
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:06,120
Speaker 10: knew him and he was a wonderful person. I saw

416
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 10: an Instagram story and it was a photo of Dick

417
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:13,919
Speaker 10: acting as an umpire during a softball game, and the

418
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 10: photo he has his arms outstretched calling safe as a

419
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:24,160
Speaker 10: girl slides across home plate. And the sentiment of what

420
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 10: the caption was under the photo was that Dick, you know,

421
00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 10: he passed and he was calling those girls safe. He

422
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 10: was calling them home and calling them safe. And I

423
00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 10: really do believe that that's that that's what he was doing.

424
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 10: That's the person he was. That's the place Mystic was.

425
00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 10: It's it's an indescribable place, and it is heaven on earth.

426
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 10: It's so formative to so many girls.

427
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 14: And.

428
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 10: It's a good place God is. And I always always

429
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 10: dreamed of sending my girls to Mystic, and I hope

430
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 10: that I still can. I'm praying for the Eastland family.

431
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 10: I'm praying for all the parents who have lost children.

432
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 10: I'm praying for the girls who are still missing. The

433
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 10: Mystic community. It's it's huge, so many girls, the parents

434
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:30,400
Speaker 10: of girls. It's huge, and there's a lot of us

435
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 10: hurting and a lot of us praying, and just just

436
00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 10: keep praying. Prayer can lift us, lift us all up.

437
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,040
Speaker 7: Julia, tell me how you first came to go to

438
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 7: Can't Miss It? What was it in? What grade was it?

439
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 7: And then what made you want to go back year

440
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 7: after year?

441
00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 10: So I was not signed up as a baby. Some

442
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 10: people kind of say, oh, yeah, you have to get

443
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:06,000
Speaker 10: on the wait list because it's such a popular camp.

444
00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 10: Everyone wants to go. So I spent my first year

445
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,000
Speaker 10: at Mystic and I was in jumble house and I

446
00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 10: believe I was either going into fourth grade or finishing

447
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 10: fourth grade. I was probably about ten years old.

448
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 7: And what about the camp. I've seen some videos of

449
00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:33,719
Speaker 7: the girls singing songs as they're being evacuated in the bus,

450
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 7: the first bus that went away, and it just struck

451
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 7: me that the spirit of the place, the camaraderie of

452
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 7: the place, and people talk about it. I heard the

453
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,280
Speaker 7: lady earlier, she's eighty two years old and going back

454
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 7: to her memories of it. But talk to me about

455
00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 7: some of those memories.

456
00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,760
Speaker 10: I still think about those songs. I was digging out

457
00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 10: some old song sheets and it is so comforting. It's

458
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 10: comforting because those songs have been sung for years, So

459
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 10: not only do I know them, but all the girls

460
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 10: that went there know them. And it's kind of a

461
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 10: way to connect. It's kind of a way to calm yourself.

462
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,360
Speaker 10: It's kind of a way to remember the good times.

463
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 10: There are fun and happy and silly songs, and there

464
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 10: are beautiful, meaningful songs something else. Every night they play

465
00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 10: taps and at the end of taps they say good night,

466
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:36,360
