Waiting for Tsunami

This morning we got an automated phone call at 5 a.m. warning of a possible tsunami from the earthquake in Japan. We were even told to be on alert for a possible evacuation. Nothing happened. A surge hit Santa Cruz just a short distance up the coast this morning however. A video is  posted here

That must have been scary. I know I was thinking about all my friends up and down the West Coast. So glad all of you were spared I saw people on TV running along the beach and I thought WTH are they doing out there?

Gosh - I'm glad your area didn't have any damage. We saw the footage of Santa Cruz on the News. Looks like a calm day there on the Monterrey Peninsula.

This photo is"ripped from today's headline," as they say.

Actually this photo could and maybe should be in the newspaper.
