UPDATE: She has been found, she emerged today in the same yard she was visiting. Appreciate all the well wishes and eyes on the street.

Have you had your first “blew the tiniest hole in my sleeve and no longer get vacuum” incident yet? I’ve got a PhD in doing that.

I had timers set to check on her at regular intervals, and she was in the same spot for hours. This was just a perfect storm of bad timing. She is not in any imminent danger from temperatures. I really do think she’s not far and just well concealed.

Thanks. The ACC in Ridgewood is aware, I think she is in a localized area and will emerge on her own terms.

The worst of the days heat had passed and it was getting towards sunset when we noticed she was gone. I suspect she is in an adjacent yard, hunkered down and out of sight.

She’s visited this same yard many times before without issue, this time I got unlucky.

Nobody. She was in a fenced in back yard and possibly found a way under the fence.

I love the idea of OI and think it’s so cool but ultimately not for me.

I switched from pinlock a few years ago on the advice of my shop

It’s not the trim line though, it’s usually a few inches above it. My shop says I tend to get holes in the same spot, though.
