this is definitely more drama than usual. Though Crescent City is quite badly positioned for this stuff and has historically taken quite a beating on previous quakes/tsunamis. Japan famously has quakes by the bazillion and builds for them--way more than California--but this is one huge quake and Japan's not that big a place.

The ocean has always made me a little nervous. Probably from living up at least 5000 feet my whole life! "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

some person of more photographic zeal than sense appears to have been swept away by the tsunami in Crescent City. Like, dude, it's chewing up the harbor and you think you're gonna stand there and get a few snapshots? http://www.mercurynews.com/news/ci_17592310?nclick_check=1

some boats in the harbors around Santa Cruz and Monterey have been tossed around and some docks torn up a bit, but nothing worse. I've heard up by Crescent City it's a good deal livelier.

How is the Bay area holding up? "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

especially hope all the folks in Japan are staying safe.

Stay safe out there folks...

We're thinking about everyone on the Pacific coast. One year ago today I staid the night in Crescent City on my way to SF to see Phil's birthday show. I sure hope everyone is ok out there. Prayers go out to you all and to Japan. "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"

Another sad ending for a great musician. "It's got no signs or dividing line and very few rules to guide"
