Busy as fugg but great. My 25 yo daughter has been helping out and it's not only been great getting to hang with her, she's the best worker I've had. Makes this old boy proud!

How about you guys? I mean, other than dodging earthquakes.

Yosemite can stay. The rest I could take or leave.

That’s awesome..all good here too. Going to take the next several days off and plan on doing some heavy shooting. Trying to get these gaybros to join me for a massive WW11 rifle shoot and carpet the ground with brass…

Would love to be killing crab but the season keeps getting postponed with all the hoop net/whale BS so that’s not looking promising

No real complaints on my end brother

And we hope you don't get stuck in a frozen position.
Posted By: Valsdad Re: Another Quake - 12/22/22
Nothing felt up here.

Of course, the dogs have been running around and making noise, so a 3.3 wouldn't be felt.

No those would be the correct ones. The other ones only stop at the Carl’s Jr. in big white unmarked charter busses on their way north to Boise.

Boy, ain't that the truth.

Are you anywhere near the "real ALIEN's" hub under Mt Shasta.

If so, I'd be afraid too.

Were you a member at LPR&GC. I grew up in Livermore, dad was a lifetime member and we ran the running deer for many years.

Glad you're back.

You close to that area?

As I said, I was out highway 299 a bit from the coast, about 30 miles straight line from the '92 quakes (and all the others during that 8 year period)

you right on it there in Fremont.

Mom in law lives just off the Sam Andreas fault before it heads into the ocean near Pacifica. I always worry about that deal.

I like the <3.0 ones a lot better for relieving pressure.

Agreed. 6.4 is pushing it.

I'm not sure exactly where Cert lives, but those pins look to be on the Hayward Fault.

Geology class in colige 30 years ago, seems the thinking was that fault might be one of ones to really let loose soon..........geologically soon that is.

Hope those little ones aren't precursors.

I have heard the same thing years and years ago.

Always makes you wonder if "It" is coming when there is a cluster.

The Cascadia Fault makes the others look miniscule. When it lets loose it will be THE BIG ONE.

Oh, we learned all about that one too!

Saw the places on the beach where the shore dropped 8' in one shot, as evidenced by the spruce stumps there.

All anyone needs to see just how broken up all of that portion of NorCal is, from Cape Mendocino (the Triple Junction) to well past the Oregon border, just look at a map and tell me which way the Eel, Salmon Ck, Elk R, Freshwater Ck, Jacoby Ck, Mad R, Redwood Ck, Mouth of the Klamath and the S Fork of the Trinity run. There's a little pattern there.

It's a hotbed of activity at the southern end of the Cascadia subduction zone. I was glad I lived 10 miles or so inland when I was in that area. It's not going to be fun when it lets loose.

OK, I think I remember that one.

Would be a LONG way around if one had to go all the way to Southern Humboldt to get out.

News showing Rio Dell got hit hard too.

I was there for those.

Had a friend up from SoCal, was cooking breakfast when the first one hit. I felt the P wave hit, went to the doorway of the dining room, my buddy was at the table and his eyes were really big. I knew what was coming as we had one, maybe a 5 something, a year or so prior from the same direction and it sounded exactly the same.

I looked at him and said "Tim...............Earthquake!" just before the S wave hit.

He was staying in his van in the driveway and I guess he got shook around some when the second two hit that next morning.


Hadn't been through any that big in SoCal when I was growing up, a few 5s and maybe a 6. But nothing as big as that first one. Quite the ride, eh?

Pints I’m in Fremont… started shooting at Livermore rod and gun club when I was knee high!

I used to run the motor that drove the mining cart the deer were mounted to, and patch the holes when they returned to the "pit"

Pretty cool design someone built when I was too young to shoot also. I was the kid that elders disliked, I usually won the event, some went as far as sitting in the score pit when it was my turn to verify my bullet holes weren't "cheated" by the rest of the Livermore club crew, as we had 3 or 4 teams from the bay area town's other clubs. LOL . They didn't think anyone could hit an area the size of a pie plate, 12 shots offhand at a running target ( 3 shots in 10 seconds). I would get 2 or 3 out of the 5 ring . To be young again, lol.

I didn't feel the earthquake, it usually needs to be around a 5 to get this far inland.

Posted By: hemiallen Re: Another Quake - 12/22/22
The earthquake of Jan 1980 , I was taking my last final at Delta College in Stockton and it sounded like a food cart was rumbling on the rough cement at the cafeteria, then I saw a soda machine tip over and I realized it wasn't a cart making the rumbling noise. A week later I started working in Livermore and the overpass east of Greenville road had about a foot drop of the roadbase below the cement overpass. One of the round wall clocks in my new job fell and memorialized the time it fell off the wall.

I just looked it up and the Lab incurred about 10 million in damages. I was involved in a crash "earthquake proofing" cabinets to walls and safety nets on open book shelves in offices, they used a popular netting for truck tailgates, in flourescent green, cutting the attachment hardware off and attaching with modified clips.

I was at the World Series the day before Loma Prieta hit and in the crude unit at our Martinez refinery when it did hit. Columns, pipe and steel moving big time along with a wave of concrete passing. Short of vibration alarms on a couple of compressors zero issues. Nerve racking next couple of days.

Doesn't sound like a place I'd want to be Ed, especially if it's a quake that hits near the Golden Gate.
