Well talked with the trucking company who pick up my truck from ft Bragg today. Turns out they didn't bring ramps to get it on the trailer. The gp agent and the truck driver jumped the starter, and turns out the truck runs great. They drove it to a ramp and loaded it. Looks like I won't need to worry about a tow bar anymore.

Way to go Team! As my Belgian friend always tells me, "it is a good thing that you don't have to be good looking to be lucky, because you are very lucky." Will look forward to seeing that rig at one of our events. :D Did you get a tan or green truck?

Grays Harbor has one tent and one HMMWV set up for operations. Not much of a response for an area that's really going to be impacted. Or maybe they're thinking we'll be too impacted and assets will be at a minimum.

From what ive heard about the plan all assets will be coming from the east side since the west side will be leveled. I was told to think of 5-6 min of continious shaking with a short brake and several aftershocks at magnitude 8 or up. Not a lot is gona survive that. Perhaps they are thinking that the lone hummer and radio will be what survives the quake. I know there was a rather large convoy last weekend from spokane setup shop along 405 some where.
I was told to expect 90%+of bridges and overpasses to be destroyed... btw thats a lot up where I live... and then a big wall of water that will enter the Puget sound and slosh around. Everything west of I5 wiped off the state...
