Aloha all – we are fine, wave expected at 11:19am. All my research and info predicts it will be a nonevent, but still have to go through all evac motions – bathtub full, documents secure, gas, food, beer, propane, dog, boys, diapers, loose items…Sirens are sounding, dogs are howling, people are texting, shopping…it is BUSY here for a Sat morning. Dave is at work – since 4am – checking on submarines. I think the deal is they get them underway if possible. Not sure what they do with the others being worked on. Big bumpers? Long ropes?

Please don’t call or text. People on the islands need the lines free to reach each other. I will send out updates as possible, but we have an evac plan and are fine. Even if I had to hike, we would be fine. I picked out a rendezvous point on a hill when we moved here and an earthquake struck just two months later. The biggest runups for us have been from Alaskan quakes (50+ ft) but the last tsunami to cause damage was a 1960 Chilean quake 8.6 in mag - caused 35 ft runup in Hilo (Big Island) causing a lot of damage. It was as similar size. Hoping it turns into nothing for the islands. Thanks for prayers and thoughts!
