Whole lotta shakin goin on

We were surprised and relieved at the same time when we heard from our daughter Jessica about the 5.8 magnitude earthquake in the Los Angeles area this morning and the fact that they made it through without damage or injury. Sacramento is not in earthquake country so we tend to forget that there are still segments of our family that still are vulnerable. However, if any place has been paying attention to earthquakes and bringing buildings up to code, it is Los Angeles.

  1. They downgraded the intensity, I think it stands at 5.4. The only damage at the ancestral family home was some trim on the front porch roof came a bit separated. Whew.

  2. Glad all is well for Jessica in earthquake country. We have major construction going on at the Jr. High behind our house and sometimes it shakes our house and rattles things a bit but glad to know it's not the real thing!
