This is not dog related but if any of you are praying people, please pray for our son and family and islanders on the Atoll of Majuro, Marshall Is. where they live. Today is the highest tide of the year to start with and the tsunami is expected to hit there 7- 8 p.m. EST or Sunday noon to 1 p.m. their time (they are on the other side of the Int. Date line). Their atoll is flat and 1/2 mile wide at the widest point and 36 mi. long. They live 100' from the lagoon side. An atoll is like the rim of a sunken volcano with the lagoon in the middle. Not all of the land mass is connected on this rim which may be a good thing. The fact that it rises sharply out of the deep sea, may be a good thing. But it is not a good situation on such a small place and there are many other atolls that dot the Pacific ocean.
