Yesterday was the 60 th anniversary of the Good Frida Earthquake
. One of my old dance instructors was on the military base working in a large print shop when it started. For over four minutes he was dodging massive print machines which had tore loose from the concrete floor and were acting like elephants trying to squash a mouse, him being the rodent.

We had a small reminder three years ago with a significant ground rumbler but nothing major since. Now the days are noticeably longer and warmer and we have avout a foot or two of warming softening snow to lose, which will probably occur pretty fast.
