California Quake Gals... Did You Feel It?

[Michael]

My daughter has a jack rat (read:mutt) that's her ESD .. And that dog can sense asthma attacks, weather, she's amazing. We had a bad storm he other night she predicted and the weather guy gave all clear... Radar looked okay... And she started her storm warning..and son of a gun if a few minutes later a rouge cell didn't pop up and kaboooooooom bannnnnnng ... I just looked at her and said "thanks Roxie "

I don't know if she can predict earthquakes but when my daughter was little she could predict illness...

I was just talking about this with my friend who's dog ran up to him just before the last earthquake shook last Friday. I remember also reading about a cat at hospital or hospice was allowed to roam the halls. When it would enter a room and jump up on the bed, the staff knew the person had less then two hours to live. They had time to call relatives so they could be there at the person's passing. Usually it's dogs but the cat story was amazing.

We thought about how cool the cube was BECAUSE we could also use it for camping too. We frequently go to Pismo and camp out either at the campgrounds but sometimes also on the dunes. This would work great to power our generator and air pressure machine .

And you're right, we can be each others emergency evacuation relocation sites ::. We have a truck and fold-able trailer to haul our stuff and quads so if worse comes to worse we can grab our go-bags and head to your place (damaged roads). We were actually just talking yesterday about needing something to haul our emergency supplies if we couldn't drive in the truck, something that our quads could haul. We were leaning towards large racks to strap our emergency supplies on.

Typing this stuff out DOES make us sound like crazy preppers now that I read it back ::

have you built your bunker yet?

Don't care what others think. It's called "peace of mind" and everyone does it at their own level.

I remember the 1994 Northridge earthquake. Our town, Playa del Rey, had no power but we had a battery UPS. I had the lights on and we were making cappuccino. When I went down to the steer to chat with locals, it was almost embarrassing. The town was pitch black but our place was lit up like a watchtower. I remember thinking how fortunate I was that I spent all that money on a battery backup.
