Whoa. I was reading horror stories this morning - this is a pretty epic disaster, and many lives as well as homes have been lost. I'm glad Keni and the various forum-dwellers in the area who have touched base are safe and I hope you stay safe! And that this somehow winds itself down soon. My brother just moved back to Canada from the Watsonville area, they used to live in Corralitos, not sure how close that is to ground zero (I guess there are several?) - the whole area is/was so beautiful, hard to think of so much devastation there.
