Way OT - earthquake - DFen911 - 05-24-2013
Derek and I land in Woodland CA for the night. We no sooner get in our room on the second floor and a 5.7 earthquake hits. We haven't felt an earthquake in almost a year. But, we both looked at each other like "who is running up and down the balcony?!" Then we realize its an earthquake. Lol back to old times

Yeah, I thought I was getting dizzy and then saw the big tv wobble forward and backward. It seemed to last a lot longer than usual. Our pool water was still sloshing 5 minutes later. It had been a while since we've had one that big here.

Wow, from So. Cal to Chico?? Long one. I'd feel the same way, Denise - haven't felt one since we left California!!

WOW - we haven't felt one since we left CA either. Funny - we were talking about earthquakes last night, Jeff wondered if either of us had ever been in one. Oh yeah!

Wow, we've had at least 3 in the last few years, the last one was big enough to damage and shut down Watson Academy, knock my threads off the rack and put cracks around the fireplace wall. And this is NH. We just don't expect it here so it leaves us wondering which kid hit the house with their car-and then it dawns on us.

Interesting. I'm so familiar with the fault lines in Califorina, but I've never looked at them in other parts of the U.S. Should google this.

It's simple: in the rest of the U.S., it's always the other party's fault; in California, it's always everyone else's fault and the state will make you declare your potential culpability on the product label.
