We are all OK down here – it was certainly an exciting 30 seconds. We were all on a boat at the time. I was on Eyes of the World and Chris, Margit and Rick were on Luck Star. Rick started back to our boat and realized the dock was shaking more than the boat. The water acted as an insulator of sorts. I was on a phone call with a client and managed to describe the entire experience to them.
On land it was worse. A wall fell down in the Marina Office and one man had a heart attack. Everything seems to have calmed back down now. We have electricity and internet... but most importantly, we have French wine and cheese.
We're off on Tuesday for St. Lucia and will meet our friends and neighbors Seth and Lesley Cohen next Saturday. Stay tuned for more blogs...
Oh, and in case you didn't read the Thanksgiving Day blog here's a link to it.
Yes, we actually managed to publish more than one blog within the same 2 week period. :)

Rick,
It was so good to see you at the party on Saturday; it certainly would not have been the same with out you there, though we missed seeing Jim as well. I have been reading some of your Blog and have enjoyed every story so far! Both you and Jim have such great, yet unique writing styles, so fun to read. Amanda and I so wish we back in the islands ourselves...about every 4-6 months we start feeling that familiar itch! Email me at david.d.dyer@gmail about our Goose discussion at the party. Hope you and Jim are experiencing no problems for the moment. God Bless, David Dyer
Glad to hear you both made it through the earthquake safely. They are scary! Give our best to Lesley and Seth, the neighborhood misses them. We'll be having a drink in Lesley's honor on Wednesday=:)
Rick Little! Saw your photo and update in the Mercersburg alum news, went to your Aspen Jewelry website, and have been reading your blogs and laughing like crazy for the past hour! How great to hear about your adventures and to hear you sound so much like I remember you! I've thought about you many times over all these years...remember me? email me sometime!
