Closing Ceremonies

Tonight are the Closing Ceremonies for the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada. Tide Guy and I just watched the US play Canada for the gold in ice hockey. Canada won by one in overtime, but it was such a great game. The US has won more medals than any country during these games and many competitions have been very exciting to watch.

In the adoption world, we may have a small speed up. This month, the number of referral days has increased and more adoptions have been referred this month compared to many.

Okinawa had a major earthquake that was centered in Chili. It was felt in Hawaii and even in Arizona. The magnitude in Okinawa was the same as in Haiti, but there was no damage in Okinawa. Most, or probably all, structures in Okinawa are concrete, and built to withstand typhoons and earthquakes. We went through two typhoons while stationed in Okinawa that had 140 MPH winds. Since we lived on the China Sea, we had no protection from the wind from other buildings. It was very scary.

We may get snow Monday night into Tuesday morning.
