Amen brother,
that’s what makes the world a better place!!

 

Amen!

 

Funny thing.... I know where Ukiah is. I have an uncle that still lives there. He was 4th generation native to California, well.... like dad, and that makes me 5th generation. Now I'm in Texas. Go figure.

The last time I was through San Francisco, there was no freeway through there. I don't think they ever will.

 

Nothing like a warm tube amp and some Klipsch speakers after a long day.

 

Good evening all, it's good to be back home and able to sleep in my own bed after a week of living in a VW van. How is everyone this fine Friday evening?

 

It's been a while. I haven't seen too many Tacomas that strike my interest. But...…

A Pro at work. I'm going to have to figure out who has this now.

Edit: This was actually meant for the Texas Tacoma Stalkers thread. I must have had the wrong tab open for this. It kinda fits here though.

Anyway.... I really want an FJ Cruiser now. You know! For my son.

 

Most of the time I would agree

 

I think I've mentioned this to you but this is now the 3rd 7.1 Earthquake I've experienced over the last 27 years . The first one in June 1992 in Lucerne Valley with my 4x4 club . At 0500hrs not far away a 7.3 quake hit and all woke up panicked and scared we were only 30 miles away from the epicenter

Later on the morning at 0800hrs a magnitude 6.5 quake hit Big Bear . That was very close again just under 25miles

in 1999 living near Long Beach and at 0200hrs a very strong 7.1 earthquake hit near 29 Palms Calif . Being just over 150 miles away the strength of this quake was strong enough to knock pictures off the wall

Now just last month the 6.5 and 7.1 earthquakes near Ridgecrest . These were strong enough to cause dry wall stress cracks to my place and I'm just under 75 miles from Ridgecrest . The shaking especially during the 7.1 was so strong I couldnt keep my balance while standing up

 

Yep. We actually felt the ones in 29 Palms. Just light in Vegas. The Northridge quake woke me up around 7am in Vegas. I think. It might have been earlier. When I felt that, I thought, "Southern California is …. um 'screwed' if it was there. Yep.

 

Weesa is our Baby Sister, and our resident Sheriff for all intents and purposes. She helps us keep the riff-raff in line, or eliminated if they don't get in line. So don't be riff-raff.

 

I grew up in Ukiah. Use to be home. It could burn up now for all I care. I'm happy where I am now but I could move to Texas if everything was right. The hill country is pretty awsome. I'd love to just have a hunting lease to go to a few times a year.

 

Well said and thank you.

Well sir, hope you are likewise.

Take some pictures for your thread, please.

 

I couldnt imagine even being in a cabin in the woods when that massive quake hit Yellowstone


This is the dry wall on my garage ceiling that cracked during last months 7.1 . It runs the length of my garage from the garage door to the back wall that connects to my place . My place is only 10 yrs old

 

I might be riff raff...…

 

I doubt it, you seem a bit smarter and nicer than that.

 

Evening all, spent the night at one of the scouts 18th birthday party. He and 2 other scouts went on a 3 week tour of the national parks in the western US. Cal, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado. Great pics and great memories for them.

She goes where she wants. I give her crap, she bans me, but we have fun. She is one of the reasons I love TW.

 

G'nite Andy, sleep well.
