Shaking

An earthquake just hit. A fat juicy one. No mention yet on the size.

It's mom's birthday today. Michael is joining us for her special lunch in our fancy clothing and I am sure she is getting phone calls from Lee and Chip. We are giving her gift cards to Home Depot, McDonald's, Starbucks and Target.

Just in. It was a 4.2 earthquake where we were with the kids in Berkeley last week. Michael felt it but I was moving around. The fault near us is the San Andreas so if that one makes a big move, we are going to be in trouble. This one was over across the Bay on another group of faults.

After lunch today, I will be gearing up for William's visit tomorrow. The coffee cake will be made this afternoon as will deviled eggs for breakfast. The house and yards are in good shape so they don't need a lot of attention. The house always feels right when he is home. It is amazing to realize that he went away to college in 1999 and has never lived with us since.

Waiting for earthquake damage reports.

The fog has arrived so the heat of the weekend is just a memory here on the coast and the rest of the area will feel it tomorrow. We went to Wayne and Jill's at 6PM last night to celebrate her birthday. Her parents and sister's family were there and they are always so interesting. When we tried to get home at 8PM, the road was a crawl. Packed with tourists heading to the pass. It took awhile to drive just over a mile. The sun was beginning to set and it was just beautiful.

It's Monday. A new week. Lots to look forward to.
