5.6

Even though you can see Hollister is quite a ways from the epicenter of the earthquake we just had, it was quite a shaker even down here. Preliminary reports are that it registered 5.6 on the richter scale. We are ok, just a little extra burst of adrenaline to the system and some pictures askew on the walls. Hanging on for an aftershock or two as they often follow a quake of this scale.

In other news.. not much going on. I am working through my To Do list and don't have much to share :(

  1. Oh dear...I must have had my head in the sand all day 'cause I didn't even hear that there was an earth quake. Glad you all are ok.

  4. OH!! no thank you!! I know we had this discussion before when you visited Tenn. But for some sick odd reason I'd chose a Tornado over an Earthquake!! I know...I'm weird!! Glad you're ok!

  7. Oh my gosh Heather, I was at my studio in Morgan Hill making collage ornaments for class samples when all of the sudden everything started rockin and rollin! I have a bunch of stuff up on the shelf that runs along the ceiling of my studio and lots of things were shaking and falling, yikes! I jumped up and ran under the doorway. Scared the heck out of me to say the least! I heard this was the strongest earthquake since the quake in 1989!

  8. What a crazy way to bring in Halloween~
    We have had an earthquake here in Georgia a time or two, but they are usually so mild that most people haven't a clue until some "expert" tells us.
    California is having a rough time lately. Hope things get better!
    I enjoyed my visit to your blog;
