Several of our author friends are N.Z. natives, and the recent quake has really left a mess in it's wake. My dear friend Prudence Walker is a Cristchurch resident, and I am very worried about her right now. We haven't co-responded in quite awhile, but I know why, and I understand why we haven't.
Prue, if you read this, know that I'm still out here, and I hope you and yours are okay. I miss you a lot, but, as I said, I know why you had to go silent, and I accept that. My prayers are for you, yours, and all the residents of New Zealand.

I have had a number of texts from a girlfriend who has close friends in Christchurch. No news, no news, then---the family are safe, hubby as a volunteer fireman is doing what he has to. Breathe....
I always thought ...
... Pru Walker lived in Wellington, on the southern tip of NI, but I could be wrong - it has been known. It's only about 350km from Christchurch so I bet they felt the 'quake.
Having cycled toured SI a few years ago, starting and finishing in Christchurch, my heart goes out to them. I'm not much of a city person and avoid them whenever possible but Christchurch is a lovely place with a very warm feel to it.
