So was I - in the East Bay, about 40 miles out of San Francisco.
I had a home up for sale in Clayton/Concord.
Just happen to hit my first hour of vacation up at the Sonoma Mission Inn.
First break I had in 2yrs and I will never forget the water tower outside of my room swaying side to side and thinking if I run it will fall on me regardless.
The surgeon that had to cut those two lil kids out of the car (literally body parts off) on the collapsed bridge was one of my sons Docs from Oak. Childrens Hosp.
That was a scary one esp being seperated from family and all the phone lines tied up.
Pre Cell Phone days.
