La Conchita Mudslide

Filed under: General

Well today my boyfriend is out there digging with the rest of the Search and Rescue folks. The reality is that often times, the “rescue” part of their title is less frequent than the “Search” portion. It seems folks pretty much know the missing people are dead, but it’s mainly a cultural reason to find them, for closure for the families and to put other folk at ease that they will not find bodies years from now.

The video of the slide showed how fast and sudden this slide was. So devasting. And yet, this tragedy multiplied has happened and is happening, in Asia.
