Checking in from earthquake country

The only damage I sustained was a screwed up irrigation timer. Go figure. One client suffered a broken wine glass. (Well, it is the Napa Valley.) Electricity off in St Helena, but on at my place. Had to get out my tools to open an electric gate at a St Helena client's, but not even a broken wine glass there.

Here's a link to Napa photos.

I have clients worry about wine in strage in an American Canyon warehouse. We have no news from that yet. Big bucks at stake there.

This is the first big one I've felt since 1989. This one was a roller. Felt like I was on a small boat in the Catalina channel.
