yup, but I actually had a small talk with the wife and kids what they should do and expect. Make it home if its safe, expect to walk and bridges out. etc.
We've had similar discussions and are still working on all alternate plans - when it's safer to stay where you are, what alternate locations such as family and friends, how to try and make contact, etc. All that assumes in the event of the big one, that you #1 survive it, and #2 aren't seriously injured. I think many folks assume they'll walk away from the big one and just get on their way, but depending on where you are, that may not happen. For example, if you're near the top floor of many of the older buildings in Portland - will they come down on top of you? So many factors to consider.
