Eureka

And it felt like some of the other small towns and communities we've been to with Overcrest.

But the difference was we were situated in and around Eureka, Arcata, for most of the week that we were there and that's one big change that we made with the organization of this rally we changed the formula a little bit and being in eureka ended up being fantastic

Yeah, the people there, you know, when I went out and scouted, I mean, we can talk a little bit about planning this if you want to, Jeff.

But just for example, the social club, the Humboldt Bay Social Club, which is now something else.

But it was kind of had been abandoned when I was there.

Couldn't really figure it out.

And I'm getting a hold of the city of Eureka and talking to a dude named Jeff.

Not all Jeffs are nice, but this Jeff is nice.

I've had a lot of, we'll say, FOMO or also just wanting to do this myself, just seeing how excited everyone was coming back from it.

This time it was held up in Humboldt County, kind of out of the Eureka area.

And the oldest thing there...

I don't know if it counts because I believe it was a Renault Dauphine.

He'll be on you right now.

That would be amazing.

I've never hung out in that part of the state at all, like Arcata, Eureka.

We talked the other day, Robert.

All right, let's get into today's story.

On February 12th, 1999, 42 Carol Sund, along with her 15 year old daughter, Julie, and Julie's longtime friend, Silvina Peloso, who was 16 years old, boarded a plane in Eureka, California.

After a quick one hour long flight, they landed in San Francisco and then got their bags from baggage claim and then walked over to the airport's car rental center.

After Carol signed some rental agreement paperwork with the person at the front desk, they were given car keys and then the three women walked out of the airport into the parking lot where they saw their car.

Julie was competing in a cheerleading competition the following day at that university And Julie was considering going to the school after she graduated high school.

And so this cheerleading competition was a great excuse for her and her mom to check out the campus.

And since Sylvina was already visiting Julie at her home in Eureka, she just tagged along for the trip.

After a four and a half long drive, the trio arrived in Stockton, California, and they checked into a hotel.

Yeah.

I had the pleasure of meeting you a few years ago when you came to Eureka, California, you and Baxter.

And you were there for two days.

You spoke for two days.

And a cast was made of one, in plaster.

That fall, he went to a newspaper in Eureka, the Humboldt Times.

A columnist there named Andrew Genzoli took the story.

And on October the 6th, 1958, Jerry Crew was on the front page, holding up a plaster footprint.

This is your host, Emily, and I'm speaking with Teresa Von Braun.

She's a spiritual consultant and the owner of Teresa Von Braun in Eureka, California.

Teresa, how are you doing today? I'm doing great.

Awesome.
