Hang in there, Dave. Sorry to hear of further damage, but you provide an
excellent documentation of the situation. You'll have to put all your
photos together for historical reference. If you have a local historical
society, they might be interested in your pictures. Cheers, Christine

Some more quake photos. We passed so many great photo opportunities but
we were going visiting and in many places there was nowhere to stop
anyway.

One boulder I wanted to see was not accessible as the surrounding roads
had been closed. You can see the line of shipping containers at the base
of one of the cliffs, which are there to help prevent rocks from rolling
onto the road. In some places they're stacked two high.
The cliffs are looking dangerously unstable with huge cracks everywhere.
It'll take a lot of work to sort that out.
Good news today, the boil-water notice has been lifted which means the tap
water has been tested and declared safe to drink. I didn't think it'd
take them long so I've been drinking mostly bottled water. We'd been
treating our hand-washing water with bleach, as we did last time.
Considering the tap water is already chlorinated after February, the smell
of bleached chlorinated water isn't very pleasant.
Cheers,
Dave
