Warning! Sad and shocking photos!

Thank you everyone for your comments. On Tuesday there was a lot of media including Lodi News Sentinel who interview me for their story. Channel 10 News and the Stockton Record were among the others. I also met with the demolition contractor who is a nice guy that has fond memories of the Islander and Latitude 20.

By Wednesday I heard there was a whole bunch of people watching it. I couldn't stick around since my daughter was sick. They didn't get done with the demolition until last night.

I took this picture early this morning.


I managed to salvage an outrigger beam from the debris.
