I was just talking to Sister Shotgun in Ridgecrest, California when all of a sudden, she started cussing up a storm.. Seems they had a 3.8 mag earthquake --- and the epicenter is about 12 miles from her houe!!! Things are a ROLLING down there!!!! LOL Things fell, but no one hurt. Oh, a neighbor's gas line ruptured...so far, everything's ok with her....

Sure hope they are "safe".......And she has a plan in place in case things don't work out in the case of an emergency!

Well -- in Ridgecrest, they hardly get any of that magnitude - and in Oregon, we've had one I've felt in 59 yrs......so yes, I DO get excited.

Teddi and Kelton are doing fine and DO have an emergency plan for HER house. Nik is with his mother.

Ah folks the major fault San Andreas is moving horizontally, not vertically. Eventually one will see LA in Northern California.
