Earthquake News 5.1

Hi Folks

As a number of folks know, we had the largest Earthquake in our area in over a hundred years yesterday afternoon, it was very! clearly felt and shook the house, knocking down rocks in display cases, and rattling windows, pictures and causing my metal roof to pop up and down with a huge very scary bang.. We have a small hairline crack in two ends of one of our buildings but overall, we got off very easy compared to many others.

Hubby was evacated out of his work building, which appears to have a few parts shook off of it..

The dogs were excited before (perhaps the knew something was up) but when it happened.. everyone was dancing and barking including the puppies.. and then all followed me from place to place as I checked the house.. A few times last night, for no reason we could feel.. all the dogs would jump up and bark.. Aftershocks?

Anyway these are some well rounded storm puppies, we have had windstorms, multiply Thunderstorms and now a Earthquake.

We had rain last night and most of today and the puppies were just mucky little puppies, so we did a marathon bath, all pups in the tub, one wetting and one scrubbing and then taking turns rinsing.. It was so funny.. we put down huge towels on the floor and they all had puppy wet bath zoomies all over them.. but wow the humidity was already at 98 percent, so took the floors forever to dry out.. thankfully we have lots of fans to turn on across the house to get that air moving..

They say we are going to have sunshine this weekend, so expect a ton of new photos to come up shortly there after.
