When I walk outside after dark...I take with me a huge flashlight...and of course, Kelly. We walk up and down the street...no street lights...lot's of stars if there're no clouds...not many neighbors anywhere as they're mostly just occasional weekenders. I wave my flashlight about watching for bears, coyotes, and the local bobcat...so far...not a one...<br />TheChieftesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00153059825142977202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-26719559343569959062014-03-29T12:56:31.771-07:002014-03-29T12:56:31.771-07:00Funny that a place with all the elbow room and spr...Funny that a place with all the elbow room and sprawl of SoCal would have such micro climates.

You were pretty close to the epicenter.<br /><br />We've been having neighborhood meetings about how to protect ourselves and share the work if and when the infrastructure fails. Some people might say it's doomsday thinking. But I was close to the epicenter for the Northridge quake and I think we just need to be prepared.Petrea Burchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13043950465171821852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-58555661276611513752014-03-29T01:49:04.028-07:002014-03-29T01:49:04.028-07:00I went outside tonight and looked around.

There was a car coming from the end of the street but it turned into a driveway before the lights got too bright. <br /><br />I wore my reading outfit but left my slippers inside. The night was quiet but not still. The ground was almost warm.<br /><br />There was a package in my hands. I had come out for reason. One of my glass bowls broke during the earthquake and I needed to throw it away. <br /><br />There was paint on it from a bottle of craft paint, as well as a few drops of blood. Yes, I picked up the pieces with my fingers.<br /><br />Dropping the bowl into the trashcan was loud in my ears but no one else seemed to notice. No dogs barked as I made my way inside.Book Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11078900987400537432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-63452052056595766102014-03-28T19:27:44.364-07:002014-03-28T19:27:44.364-07:00Thanks Petrea, that is a cozy robe!Thanks Petrea, that is a cozy robe!Book Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11078900987400537432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-67194915844088851492014-03-28T16:40:38.639-07:002014-03-28T16:40:38.639-07:00It's really a lovely area.
