I found myself looking at disaster photos of Boulder on the internet. Wait. What am I doing? I found myself becoming more sad and inert. Forget the disaster photos.
The nation is looking at the mess and saying, "Wow! Glad that is not me." We need to get out and do something practical to get our lives going. Like what? Get in your car when you can and drive around. Can I get from A to B as I used to? Is a road closed because it has water, that will go away, and mud that can be plowed away? Or is it destroyed for a long time? This is practical help. What are the hardware stores out of that we all need? How hard is it to get a new water heater? Are the running paths and biking paths in need of a little drying out and then we can use them again in a week, or are they gone? What institutional buildings are destroyed? A church, library, bus terminal, school, supermarket, and won't be good for eons. Can I still get my ice cream on the Pearl Street Mall? Why should twenty of us have to find this out separately? Find out and then get the word out.
