Okay, where is my morning wake-up call from Tiago?
Yesterday's earthquake was a doozie. Since I slept
through the first one I can not compare them.
The 7.2 in Baja, ~130 miles south of here, gave us
a rolling motion for a good 45 seconds to a minute.
Longest lasting one that I ever remember.
Water sloshing out of the pool, cars rocking back
and forth that did not have their parking brakes set.
It did not set off any car alarms that I heard.
I may go shopping for a generator and a water purifier.
Cheers, sit down and hang on tight.

I do have a boat in the driveway if things get really bad.
At that point we will all have more things to worry about
that a silly earthquake.

Of course! Wife is long time friend of a guy who is a professional
photographer, as his gift, he gave us professional photos. One DVD
worth of pictures. He promised to put it on the mail this week, as
soon as I get it, I'm selecting the best and will make an of topic
wedding report.
