Shaken, but not stirred

First, many thanks to those who sent us their concerns about our family in Japan. While our immediate family lives in Okinawa, far (enough) from the dangers of the epic 8.8 earthquake that hit Sendai, Japan and the following devastating tsunami, Mom & Dad were in fact spending time in their mainland Japan tax office. They are safe and sound and heading home to Okinawa soon. We are grateful for our friends’ and family’s safety and our thoughts and prayers are with the many victims of this very tragic event.
