good news!

we have seen an aerial photo of our neighborhood. it appears that the debris line is one block south of us! we can see our roof, so something of our house remains! we can see at least 3 pieces of our white fence are down, but no biggie. the tree in the back yard appears to have fallen away from our house. i will attach an image here as soon as i can get it to fully upload, it may take a while.

no news as to when it's safe to return. kyle is insistant on returning for a day trip to survey the damage. i am more ok with this option than all of us returning when there is no water, sanitation,power or phone access!

we also have gotten word that our new office bldg is standing and with no damage. they even have running water! good thing they decided to install 2 showers... even better news is that all of the employees are supposed to be accounted for!

more later...
