    Ah, the news is now saying the earthquake was 2.8-3.5, depending on who you talk to, but they all say we won't have any aftershocks (whew)

    I'm more concerned about the highspeed car chase I saw a few minutes ago! I was outside with Nicki and a car came screaming down the side road, then entered the traffic circle next the house.... narrowly missing a dozen cars (its rush hour) and a police car was in high pursuit after him. I thought he had hit a car for sure.... I actually saw smoke come up from his tires as he skidded across the road. All the while the police siren blared and Nicki howled in response. It was terrifying! I couldn't get hold of Nicki fast enough (she wasn't leashed and she really, really wanted to go after the police siren) and I was terrified the bad guy would hit someone. It was like everything was in slow motion - it all must have happened in a split second.

    I sure wish I had my camera.... I could have video taped it and sold it to the news! LOL

    That is a tiny shaker but I lived thru the Loma Prieta quake and thru many smaller quakes. Sometimes it's the little ones that knock you off your feet! I have a hanging lamp in the living room and that's my barometer of how strong it was at my house.

    Yep, that's a pretty small quake. But, it could be that it was close to you so it felt pretty strong.

    Once we had a 5 point something a few miles away (and very deep in the earth) and we barely felt it. But, then we had a 3 point something very close to our house. It felt a lot stronger!
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.
