Still on Dry Land :)




Heya folks back home.
No worries... we're high and dry, as I'm sure you've heard on the news by now :)
Here's a pic from the top of Glacier Rock showing the Trinity Bay area (my beach is off pic toward the left) about 18 hours before the Tsunami Warning was issued this morning. The main wave was projected to hit our area a little before 10am so most folks evacuated to higher ground (or tried to... the traffic was horrendous) and waited out the wave that never came - just bit of a rise in water level (~ 1 foot). We all hung out at work because it's elevated and there's a knoll called Earl Hill between the coast and our clinic; but you can imagine the electricity in the air.

Anyway... Alls well that ends well. Have a great week!

Cheers, Matt :)
