122 miles according to maps.google.com
Definitely out of flood, tornado, earthquake, nuclear, etc range.

We can make it in just over 2 hours.

Neither site has any physical tape drives.
I have initiated a fail over to the other site from my home.
I have done saves/restores.

P9's will be on order this week.
