I guess it's the timeline throwing me off. It just seemed like the time they got to the lake was almost immediate. But...the timeline seems rather untrustworthy too.

Also...it is a serious medical danger to dive within 24 hours of flying due to the possibility of decompression sickness (DCS). That includes flying prior to and flying 24 hours after a dive. While dive depth can influence DCS...it is a standard precaution that most certfied and professional divers adhere to. IMOO
Good question. I haven't read or watched everything, but I have yet to hear any reference to a bike helmet.
"Somber" is the word John Johnson of Waverly used to describe the atmosphere surrounding Meyers Lake on Thursday, as the search for Elizabeth Collins, 8, and Lyric Cook-Morrissey, 10, pushed into yet another day.
Whether it be to pass on prayers or show their support, membersS of the surrounding communities continue to gather on the shores of Meyers Lake, desperate for any kind of news.
"I think we all feel the need to be a part of something bigger than ourselves," Johnson said. "And that's what this is, and is why we are all here today."
The mood by the lake may be somber, but as the one week mark of the girls' disappearance nears, supporters still aren't giving up hope.

But the one witness says he sees them turn around from the lake to head home all the time? Confusing as you said.
I understand being thorough and agree, but I honestly don't think I have ever seen this much care go into searching a body of water even in similar cases. Like, dragging sonar divers draining and then more dragging sonar and divers.
Maybe I have some of the facts twisted or maybe they do do all of that in other cases and it just isn't reported?
Is this often required or even seen in other states? I thought it was one of those "crazy Californian" things but I could be wrong. (I do live in CA so yes I'm calling myself crazy too)

thx Grainne- thought I missed something on dogs
You know I am still a little confused as to why the Aunt, grandma & nephew went rushing down to the lake from the get go :waitasec:
I mean the river is literally less than 1000 ft from the Collins residence...
maybe they rushed to the lake because that is where the bike trail is located? Just a thought.
I was confused as to why they rushed to the lake too! Especially since the grandmother is quoted as saying she doesn't think the girls would even know the way to the lake. Very confusing case.
IIRC...Aunt tammy said they checked all parks. that would include Deerwood Park and Meyers Lake. I know for a fact that the day the girls went missing my daughter's BF was at a different park in Evansdale and someone stopped to ask them if they had seen 2 girls on bikes...which they hadn't.
I think its been reported that it wasn't the first place they went. I think (can't remember where I saw it) that they stated they looked everywhere, including the Lake...the media only emphasized the lake part (as it appears they have been doing this whole time).

It's just strange because, even still, they are insisting the children wouldn't have gone to the lake, but yet they checked the lake immediately. Isn't the river closer to their house?
Great point. Thanks for posting that. I had forgotten how serious DCS is or can be.

I Believe that the authorities sincerely believe the girls are in the lake. They have been so quick to point out that they do not suspect foul play. I thought I had read, also, that they didn't think that other children in the area are in danger. While they are planning on sifting through Evansville garbage, they really DO seem to be putting most of their efforts into the lake.
She failed a drug test and was violated.
Nope, we have to wear helmets here in WA too. You're not the only crazy state that has their lawmakers racking their brains to think up new laws to put on the books.Is this often required or even seen in other states?
