"This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations glow and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at any moment we may see the unicorn."

Tsunami Surge in Northern California



I know this is NOTHING compared to what the people of Japan have (and are still currently) gone through....but this morning, for the first time in my life - we, in SF and a bit further in Santa Cruz, experienced a Tsunami Alert.  Here are some of the images..... 20 boats sunk, 100 boats damaged - one person swept out to sea.


I was in San Francisco for the 1989 earthquake....but the one in Japan yesterday was 100 times as strong.

Here in SF - not too bad...but you can definitely see the powerful surge....below.... amazing to think that these waves originated in Japan.




But.....to leave you with a smile...here are our "infamous" SF Sea Lions.....only a little perturbed by the rocking AROUND!




Please keep the people across the world who have been affected by this in your prayers. It all reminds me of the classic

apocalyptic movie "On the Beach".


Love,
