To The Eagle: The night of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan we were awakened by a phone call from a relative who saw the news on TV. After watching the news for a while, we decided to get some sleep and check back at 5 a.m. when the tsunami was expected to hit Hawaii. If there was a massive wave at Hawaii that might significantly hit our coast, we were prepared to leave Puget Island for higher ground, just to be on the safe side. We never panicked and we would not have waited for an official evacuation notice, if we were concerned about...
To The Eagle: The sun is out and the days are getting longer, and I’d like to walk in my neighborhood. But, I’m afraid! Not of gangs or such as in big cities, but of animals. You see, a couple of months ago on a rare sunny winter day, my husband took our dog for a walk. She was on her leash. Not 10 minutes into the walk a large dog, three times her size and weight, came out from behind bushes, a scuffle ensued, and subsequently Kodees was bitten in the eye and the retina detached. After many trips into Longview to the vet, medications, tes...
