Vash! Looks like you have some work to do!

Massive slide covers HWY1 south of Big Sur. That missing bridge is now a minor problem.

Here's hoping that when they begin clearing it out they don't discover occupied cars inside...

That slide is insane! We all got an.email memo. I'll go if I need to. My current slide looks like hangnail compared to that.

I'm tired.

This is a good place to split the state in two just drive a line to the east and life will be good for both sides

Not too likely. The highway has been closed in that area for more than a month. A bridge 20 miles or so north of there was starting to collapse due to all of the weather we had this year. It hasn't been a good year for Big Sur.
