    Back in Spring---Texas that is

    Texas dad vanishes after wife makes odd discovery in backyard

    Colby Richards, a 31-year-old Texas father, has been missing since he apparently left his home in Spring, Texas, the morning of May 24.

    His wife, Callie Richards, noticed her husband wake up early that Friday around 5 a.m., but when he did not return to their bedroom to get ready for work, she got up to check on him, according to Colby's cousin, Allison Fox.

    "He wasn't in the house, so she checked the backyard … and she noticed that the back gate was open, which was atypical. He never leaves the house that way, and they would never leave the gate open anyway because they have a dog and two small children," Fox told Fox News Digital.

    I am currently about 4 miles from that location. I have seen it on the news, too.

    An interesting case with endless possibilities. At this point, all we can do is hope he did not meet a violent end.

    Desmond Tutu once said, “Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.”

    Many people were involved searching for him. May their reward be forthcoming.
