Just a short note to let folks who aren't watching Twitter know that we're all fine here. Broken beer and wine glasses, but no broken bottles. Four 5.0+ quakes, smaller ones every ten minutes or so. We have company visiting from Canada; they'd have felt cheated if #eqnz didn't show them a good time. They got to help clean up broken glass after the 5.8, then again after the 6.
Power never went out; water dropped for about 5 minutes after the 6.0 - perhaps until they got backup power to the pumping station.
We spent the afternoon enjoying the gorgeous sun in the backyard, watching the kids run around, and mostly ignoring the quakes.
In case of emergency, as always, catch me at @EricCrampton on Twitter.
Glad to hear you're OK.
ReplyDeleteBon courage!
ReplyDeletePresumably the quakes gave you new material for the "airing of grievances" part of the evening.
ReplyDeletevery funny dude -" folks from the west side of town who sensibly worried about being stuck out here in the east".
