Update: The boys have been found.

Vermont State Police are looking for help locating two 11-year-old boys from Brookfield who have not been seen since just before noon, Sunday.
A notice from VT-ALERT says the notice is for a "missing vulnerable person." No details if that describes both boys or just one, or why they're considered vulnerable.
Police said Phillip Duprey and Glenn Godin, were last seen in the area of Brookfield Elementary School at 11:24 a.m., Sunday, May 5.
Duprey is described as a white male, 5 feet, 2 inches, 86 pounds, with dirty blonde hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing red pants and a blue hoodie.
Godin is described as a white male, 5 feet, 1 inch, 100 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a tan UA sweatshirt, gray shirt, and blue jeans.
The boys are believed to be on foot in the area.

I appreciate the help.

Also, please note the sacrifice Tim and his wife make to get the papers delivered. And it's way less than a cup of coffee a week to subscribe. $51 per year! That's only $1 a week. And worth every penny. -- Darren Marcy

Last Thursday gave me pause to do that through a series of misadventures during paper deliveries in Chelsea. This is a ...
