Yes, dad... Howie's family lives in Santa Rosa, CA. They are out of power, right now. Napa Valley is in the heart of "wine country" and the entire area right now is full of tourists for harvest time. I am hearing there are two major injuries, and lots of places without water and power. Some older buildings (Historical Buildings, primarily) have crumbled. Roads have been damaged - 18 inch rises in pavement. The earthquake happened in American Canyon, which is surrounded by wineries and tourists bed-and-breakfasts places. Wine bottles are broken by the thousands.

We haven't heard from Howie's family yet - they may have been camping over in The Grand Canyon, or perhaps elsewhere.
