Pausing while a bit of shaking goes on

I had great plans to finish up some projects this morning. I may get to them, but first I must make sure everything is still OK with the house.

Early this morning, we experienced a jolt that woke us up. A quick peak around to make sure nothing was really broken, no wires down, or water gushing and back to sleep. You can go to the USGS website here to see the data, but you may need to change the settings to give you earthquakes that happened earlier than the default (1 day) or change the map to show more detail (Zoom in to the San Francisco Bay area with about 100 miles radius showing).

We live in a historic home. It was built around 1910. We live on granite and the house is sturdy. It’ll take The Big One to do significant damage, but by then our whole town will be at the bottom of the MontereyCanyon in the Bay. We did have a brief shake, but no rolling or anything. The house didn’t slip and no damage to the utilities. Later we’ll look around outside. Make sure there’s no cracks or trees down etc.

Then I’ll get to the projects. Today also starts the Triuum. As part of the music leadership, I’ll be busy the next 4 days. I’ll be prepared with some easy tatting I can do in the down time between the activity. Maybe I’ll finish a bootie.
