A MOVING VALENTINE'S DAY!!

So, did you feel it?   The earth moved for ALL of us on Valentine's Day!!

At 7:31 pm, Tues, a 6.0 earthquake rumbled through the area (along with a little bit of thunder).   The quake was centered 150 miles west of Coos Bay.

It's always a good idea to restock up on water, batteries, and dry goods (like crackers, cookies, pastas, etc - things that don't require refrigeration to last).  And don't forget the toilet paper!

Take this moment to remind the family where to meet in a disaster, where to go for a tsunami, and create an out-of-town contact person that everyone knows to call in case of separation. 

For more tips, go to the US Government site on earthquake preparedness.  Now, take down that expensive vase for a few days, just in case...
