Get off my lawn!

So fires, mudslides and now an 7.0 earthquake. What is next, a plague of locust? At least the weather in nice most of the time.

Just ran home. Some broken nick nacks. Lost a snow globe, etc. pets are disturbed. Have power. Anchorage tv stations are off the air.
Strange. The lake froze over last week. Now the ice is split cleanly down the center. Hard to judge time in a quake. But the first one felt like three minutes. Unsettling. Just went through the emergency kit. Batteries are missing. Suspect the wife and kid consider the remote controls more important than survival in a crisis.

Up in anchorage.
 No word of anybody hurt. But we’re all on edge from the aftershocks. No tsunami in Kodiak. So I guess that’s it.

Is it All Wheel Drive?
Reminds me of DC potholes.  Hope all you Alaska folks are alright.

Seems everyone is fine. This state comes pre disastered. Takes a lot to stop us flat.

Just saw this on TV. Holy cow! Do we have any Alaskan pelicans on here besides Varmint? Glad to hear things are OK with you Varmint.

There’s a guy in anchorage, and one in Fairbanks, I think. Went through the emergency kit. A bunch of batteries missing. Phone charging cable, spare dog leash. Probably some other stuff gone that just doesn’t come to mind. It’s insane that I have to hide the bug out bag from my family, but looks like that’s the way it’s got to be.
