I thought my postings to this blog finished when I tagged on the crazy October 2006 "Surprise" snowstorm here in Buffalo.

A 8.9 earthquake has hit Japan - directly impacting Sendai (where we visited a teacher college) and Kesennuma (our lovely host city). I can't stop thinking and worrying about all the school children, teachers, and wonderful people we met while we were there.

Please, please, please pray for them all - and especially the people and places you see in this blog.
