Just checked at Where it occurred, not good as was a offshoot fault of the San Andreas NOT On it, that means pressure is getting really tight there.

I never felt a thing,maybe getting new old rust that use to be orange dumped in my yard had me distracted.Cousin dumped 3 HD 5 carcusses here only cost 2 beers and 2 sandwichs and gas in his truck. But they have Shamless away bugs in them, monster wasps.


 WinkJoe I thought you were tougher than that,we only have quakes a little more often than the aliens visit your part of the world.LOL

Mels on your side if the big one comes, I think.  Cry I am with all the Fruits and Nuts on the coast.

Yeah, Ray, you will be treading water in the Pacific if the big one comes.  Got to thinking about a trip to north of  Half Moon years ago, saw a couple pretty big AC crawlers between the Highway and the ocean only a few hundred feet.

Didn't feel a thing on the hill.  Epicenter was 200 miles due east of here, granddaughter in the Navy in San Diego 400 miles south felt it.

I have a handful of first cousins that live in Southern CA. I always tell my one cousin Jack that CA is gonna break off and float out into the ocean one of these days. He says:
"Ahhh, no problem, they'll build a bridge to us"........ LOL!

I was looking at Red tractor porn and my Wonderfull tells me the bed was shaking. I still didn't Confused feel a thing. But some of them girls Wink was really washed and waxed LOL cause they just had there show for the year and getting the pictures posted from the guys that travel a long way to see it.


Now when I came in from baling hay this morning she tells me it was bigger than the first Wink but the "experts" are calling it a fore quake. So good by all if I get washed out to sea and don't get hauled home if big one comes now.


But back in Dec of 03 when it started rumbling and then shaking and a tree twisted back and forth and  did all manor of jumping, I said to myself damm this must be the big one the way it's shaking here. Well come to find out I was only 2 or to 4 miles from the middle of the action, just west of me rated a 6. The San Andreas runs about 20 miles east of where I hang out most of the time.  Wink  But you need to remember I be moving even when I am sitting still.LOLLOLLOL

Looked at the USGS Site, this line of aftershocks from the first quake lead to this one and are traveling beyond, this is NOT over.
