Virginia Adventure Scare

We almost lost Lily in Virginia this would not have been an adventure but a tragedy.  We came home late it was dark plus it was rainy.  We quickly ran up the cabin steps to let the dogs out to potty as Mike took the dogs out the door and down the stairs I grabbed the leashes and a flash light and headed down the cabin steps but not on my feet.  Yep, I went down the steps on my butt with a loud thump.  Mike turned around to see what happened and yelled are you ok? OMG! Are you ok, can you get up?  This got Lily freaked out and she ran thinking Mike was yelling AT me not TO me.  We searched  and searched in the dark and looked all over the camp grounds for her and could not find her.  I was so scared and freaking out thinking its dark, wet and she'll be cold probably eaten by wild animals in the woods that surround the camp grounds.  All I could think about was how scared she must be and she is in a strange place and what if she can't find her way back if she's not eaten by wild animals.  Even though I was in extreme pain, wet and tired I was determined to stay up all night and wait for her on the steps of the cabin till she returned. Mike finally got in the truck and went searching came back and said you have to accept that she is gone nothing we can do now.  When he returned he had left the truck door open and who came crawling back with her tail between her leg ready to jump up in the truck......yes, it was Lily!!!!!
