After hearing the news about a 8.2 earthquake in Japan and then a tsunami warning for Hawaii my first thoughts were for Ka Honu and his wife.
Just want you to know we are praying for ya', hope to hear from you soon.
Be safe Paul. You are in our thoughts.
Give us a shout and let us know ya OK
We're all thinking about ya KH. When you have an opportunity let us know you're OK.
Hopefully the worst has passed..
QuoteHONOLULU – Tsunami waves hit Hawaii in the early morning hours Friday and were sweeping through the island chain after an earthquake in Japan sparked evacuations throughout the Pacific and as far as the U.S. western coast.
The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said Kauai was the first of the Hawaiian islands hit by the tsunami. Water rushed ashore in Honolulu, swamping the beach in Waikiki and surging over the break wall in the world-famous resort but stopping short of the area's high-rise hotels.
Last time he evacuated during a tsunami on Maui, they ended up relaxing in lawn chairs at a nice high elevation, with a pitcher of cold adult beverages. KH is one smart and resourceful turtle.
hope everything is all right
Here's to your family's health and well being My Turtle friend. May you glass always be full and your ice plentiful. Enjoy the view and watch the waves roll by.
All okay here - the wave heights apparently only(?) hit a couple of feet over level on Oahu but higher on Maui & Hawaii. We're a few blocks inland from the evacuation zone so the biggest deal was the sirens.
Good to hear the only thing you had to worry about was the siren noise. Better safe than sorry. Have a cold frosty one anyhow if nothing more than to make me feel bad cause I have to go to work tonight and I can't have one.
Glad to hear you are ok
Good to here every thing is okie dokie in your part of the world.
It's good to be king. But, sometimes, it's better to be amphibious. ;D

Being pelagic reptilian royalty works best.

Awrighten.
Glad your alright. :)
Glad to hear all is ok. :D Didn't know if you ran to the hills or hit the beach for surfing ;)
I think how bad things are in your little corner of the globe and always wish I could come over and help you out with the bad weather and all! ;)
Any time, Tommy. We may have to hide Kimmie's "overdone protein" preferences, though; I'm not sure I want anyone to know that I know someone who eats meat that well done.
Not to change the subject but I will , Did you get your book yet?
Not really a subject change since both books were delayed by the tsunami and should be here today. Hopefully I'll be home and can refuse delivery on the more expensive one.
