And the Ground Shakes

Michelle and I just experienced our first earth quake since coming back. We were baffled at first when it started. What was going on? And then I said, "it's an earthquake." We instantly jumped under the door frames. Asked each other what we should do. Shook a little. And then ran out on our deck.

"Is it over?"

"I don't know, but that was awesome."

According to the San Francisco Chronicle it was a magnitude 5.6 temblor centered in San Jose. I don't know what 5.6 means, but I do know what "we need to get earthquake insurance means."

I found this flier on a telephone pole close to our house. Its design, artwork, and writing are amazing. Really.

"sort of friendly"

"looks kind of like this"

I hope Little Joey found his way back home.
