Ah, thanks for the correction. :-) Part of the "Ring of Fire"?
When I lived near the Mojave, we had to dump our own trash. They were using the San Andreas Fault ravine as a landfill.
The melting of the poles would do the same thing here, but we are sufficiently above current sea level to be safe.
Yah right.
I'll just stock up on ammo...
Can't that be cured with Preparation H?
?? You have one of those too? Cat often nips when he wants attention.
In this case it was the 7-month old granddaughter, wanting whatever it is they want when they chew on you! ;-)
Quakes...never experienced, don't want to.
Same for experiencing California........ ;-)
Charlie, ducking and running.....
Don't start...;-)
Yee Haawww....I goes a trollin' fer a Billy Goat Gruff and a Private Steve rises to the fly...hot damn....picked the wrong bait fer a Billy, but caught me a keeper anyways! ;-)
How is the trout fishing going? Having a great time, no doubt (unless you filled yer waders with ice water), and that is paramount...having a great time, not fillin' yer waders!

Mine just paw me or plop themselves in my lap.
Hungry baby!
LOL! We escaped from there 27 years ago.
No, these:
ROFLMAO :-)) That woke me up.
For an opening day the fishing was good. Exercised a few and put 'em back.
To be standing in a Sierra stream early in the morning as the mist rises into a crystal blue sky, that Charlie, is paramount. To me.
Damn. I bought my fishing license when I bought my hunting license prior to going hunting last month. I need to pick one up for dad.
I've not been fishing in years and there IS a lake nearby! Crappie, Bass and Catfish.
While attending school in AZ in the 60's, I got Prickly Pear jelly, made IIRC from the flowers, from one of the Pima tribes in the area. Their best was made from Saguaro.
oz, who has a Trappist monastery nearby, supplied with many yummie preserves and the world's best fruitcake.
Somehow, Ma Nature follows me around and gets pissy now and then. When I was a kid in NE, I survived a number of tornado close calls. While I was in college in Tempe AZ, the Salt River flowed (from diversion dam overflow) for the first time since the 30's, wiping out most of downtown Phoenix. In 1970 (71?), while stationed in the Mojave, THE BIG ONE hit. Somewhere in the low 8's. Collapsed many freeway overpasses, destroyed a VA hospital, and almost blew a dam in north LA county --
200 thousand valley people evacuated. Lived 30 mi. from St. Helens when it blew.....twice. Back to school at WSU (only school in PAC 10 where it snows) for the coldest winter since record keeping. Survived two typhoons and one super typhoon (an official term) while in Micronesia with Peace Corps in 94-96 Ten years here with at least three nights a year in the bomb shelter, spillway at Table Rock Dam (Branson) opened for the first time EVER after the all-time record rains this winter, an 4.8 earthquake two weeks ago and a 4.4 a couple days ago, 38 tornado touchdowns in January, and my radishes are late. I am expecting frogs, locusts, and flies (already got ticks) any day.I am really a nice guy, but neighbors tend to move away.
cheers
oz, who doesn't even count backpacking through the USSR when the army threw Gorby in house arrest, and me with a USAF(ret) ID in my pocket.
I'd like your current gps coordinates, please. And where you intend to be over the next eleventy-seven years. Including vacations. ;-)
Oh wow.
Sweet. :-)
I think that was '72. We lived in LA at the time. I was 10. I remember the mess it made!
Ok, sucks to be you. :-(
Move to the hill country. The worst we've gotten in the 26 years I've lived here is one bad hail storm. ;-) 'nadoes touched close a couple of times but not close enough to cause harm!
Hail is hard on gardens tho'.
well crap.......looks like the weekend weather is going to hell now.
Your neighborhood appears to be rather large.
I'm beginning to notice a pattern here, now that you mention it.....when you are away, the weather on this end of the state is pretty good. You show up, as indicated by this post, and now we are expecting cooler and possible severe storms for the next several days......
Perhaps you might post your itinerary, weekly, in order that we can plan our gardening activities? I liked Steve's proposal also.
Where you gonna be Memorial Day weekend.......I *was* planning on a family fishfest that weekend.
Charlie, keeping an eye on the sky
