One week after the 6.7 earthquake that rocked Hawaii's big island, Bill checks in with two locals whose lives have been turned upside down. He talks to Reverend George Baybrook, minister of a 151-year-old church that was badly damaged in last Sunday's quake. He will also speak with Bill Shontell who is the engineer on an irrigation system that provides both fun for tourists and sustenance to farms in the Kohala region. The system has been so badly damaged that it will take millions of dollars and an indeterminate amount of time before it can run again.
