MIKE AND OTHER POSTERS IN JAPAN: ARE YOU OK?
HAVE BEEN CHECKING THE BLOG. PLEASE GIVE US A SHOUT WHEN YOU HAVE A CHANCE.
MIKE, please let us know how you are! concerned! Here in hawaii we're still under tsunami watch, but expect nothing. the waters are too deep around hawaiian islands - we got a 4 ft water rise which receded. It did hit some store front windows on the beach level, flooding stores. Nothing like what Japan got.
Please update us! Aloha, Cindy
