I think the total number of deaths is up to 10 now form the earthquake. Everybody that I know that is from there, lives there or has family there is okay. However, there are many people who suffered damage. Some only very little damage while others houses or apartments are completely destroyed. I know it wasn't a massive natural disaster but it still did a lot of damage and lives were lost. Keep the town of Lorca in your thoughts and prayers.

I also happened to look at a map today and realized how close I was to Tunisia and Libya when I went to Sicily, Italy. That was kinda crazy as well.
