A husband and wife have been missing from their California home for several days.

The couple's unlocked vehicle was found just down the road from their home.
Both of their cell phones and Stephanie's purse were found still inside their residence, located in the nudist ranch, which boasts 5 miles of hiking trails with beautiful mountain views, a pool, a jacuzzi, and a clubhouse with daily activities. The ranch is close to 2 towns for shopping and restaurants.

The couple's dog, Cuddles, was also reported missing.
Their friend told the media: "There’s no way that Stephanie or Dan could have walked away from that car.
"She has a cane. It was at home, her purse, their cellphones — things they would never have left at home."
The Redlands Police Department claims there has been no indication of foul play, but friends and family have expressed concern about their safety.
Another friend of the couple shared: "They don't deserve this. ... They're just good people. They go to church. They don't deserve any of this.
"[The neighbor] went inside their home to see if they would be OK inside and they didn't find them in there, but they found Stephanie's purse was in there, [her] cane was in there. ... [The] TV was left on, [the] computer was left on. It was just very suspicious for them to be gone."
Stephanie's purse was found inside their home at Olive Dell ranch.
