What Hawaii taught us....

What Hawaii taught us.

What a scare for the people of Hawaii on Saturday.  I can’t even imagine the thought process they had other than being so scared. Go to shelters.. WHAT SHELTERS? I am sure they have shelters from really bad weather.. like schools and halls and etc.  But for a bombing?

My cousin was visiting with his son.. they spent an hour in a bathroom before they got an all clear.. it was a mistake.  And why did it take 38 MINUTES of hell… (for the people) to send out an all clear message to the people?  38 MINUTES… think about it…you get antsy waiting for a minute on the microwave.. 38 minutes!!!!!!

So what has Hawaii taught us all?  It has taught us we are not prepared in the least of ways..  What if North Korea did send one of their missiles?   To even Portland  or Seattle..  As I told the King.. actually, asked him… what would we do?  If we had gotten word that the missile was heading to us?  What would we do? Where would we go?

How far reaching would the bomb be? If it hit Seattle.. or even Spokane???  And if it was a nuclear bomb?   I guess what would come into play, is what my mother told me in the 1950’s. That was when a lot of people were digging holes in their back yards for a bomb shelters.

She told me that she and Dad would not be doing that…  That if in fact a bomb did come.. she would take us out side… and have us all bend over and kiss our arses good bye.. because no filter system was going to keep the gases out of any bomb shelter. and it would turn into a tomb..  So she would look around one more time.. of the beauty of our home and yard.. and we would be gone.
