49. So sorry about your boat.

I will look for it!

We are not doing the Baja Ha-ha. I think they are leaving in two weeks or so. We are taking both the boat and the car down there (me in the car) starting tomorrow and plan to stay..... who knows how long!!

Thinking about putting it on the hard during hurricane season and doing some traveling.

Then eventually through the canal to the Caribbean.

Adventure of a lifetime.

Get another boat, darn it!

EARTHQUAKE: near Cali and AZ, Ok this is somewhat significant [View all] nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 OP

Yep 6.4 is significant malaise Oct 2013 #1

I guess no news is good news nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #2

Of course you felt nothing. Codeine Oct 2013 #18

...and two smaller ones near the Yellowstone caldera in the last 2 days. roamer65 Oct 2013 #3

The caldera is far enough I am sure they are independent nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #4

Hard to say, Nadin. roamer65 Oct 2013 #9

That is one thing Professor Abbott (A local geologist) nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #10

that's not near California AZ Mike Oct 2013 #5

The Gulf of California is NOT anywhere near Texas. nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #7

That quake is as close to Texas as it is to California. MineralMan Oct 2013 #13

The Sea of Cortez and the Gulf of California are one and the same, FWIW. cbayer Oct 2013 #19

Professional journalists can't be bothered with things like facts and names Codeine Oct 2013 #22

I know, Gulf of California is the usage mostly in the US nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #33

I've always like the name 'Vermilion Sea' for that one, but I'm not petronius Oct 2013 #40

And we all learn something new nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #41

I've not heard that used much. Sea of Cortez is the preferred name cbayer Oct 2013 #46

John Steinbeck favored that name Brother Buzz Oct 2013 #47

So sorry about your boat. cbayer Oct 2013 #49

I think it's pretty archaic, and unusual even in that context. I just wish it would petronius Oct 2013 #48

Not planning on returning at this point, but will hopefully have internet access off cbayer Oct 2013 #50

Wow, even more exciting petronius Oct 2013 #51

Thanks so much, petronius. cbayer Oct 2013 #52

I'm confused then. AZ Mike Oct 2013 #28

The copy and paste in the op states Brother Buzz Oct 2013 #32

I said near AZ and Caifornia, not Juarez. If I am to be very exact, Hermosillo and Guaymas are the nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #34

I just eyeballed the map Codeine Oct 2013 #31

Give it a rest. zappaman Oct 2013 #36

I am as humbled by your post Codeine Oct 2013 #37

Yikes! MoonRiver Oct 2013 #6

Near is subjective Brother Buzz Oct 2013 #8

"Significant" as well, it looks like. Brickbat Oct 2013 #20

That's like five hundred miles from California, give or take. Codeine Oct 2013 #11

No. That's not near California. MineralMan Oct 2013 #12

Almost as bad as saying "Frisco" grasswire Oct 2013 #14

Yes. Annoying. MineralMan Oct 2013 #15

Uttering that abominable word is a High Misdemeanor in the City. Brother Buzz Oct 2013 #23

get over yourself FirstLight Oct 2013 #16

Nice. Your little smilie is really cool, bro. MineralMan Oct 2013 #21

To be fair, if you're going to shorten 500+ miles to "near" Codeine Oct 2013 #17

That reminds me, whatever happened to Az? He/she used to be one of my favorite posters n/t Fumesucker Oct 2013 #24

Didn't feel a thing in Los Angeles. kestrel91316 Oct 2013 #26

Me either. zappaman Oct 2013 #27

I should think not. Codeine Oct 2013 #30

From the shake map Hermosillo barely did nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #35

Did you ever give any updates pintobean Oct 2013 #29

I don't have much experience with earthquakes but we had one last summer or the one before. hrmjustin Oct 2013 #38

Yup, old rock tends to carry it better nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #39

Wait a minute... Lady Freedom Returns Oct 2013 #42

Tucson would be at the outer edge of where you would feel it, if you did nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #43

It was not really that much. Lady Freedom Returns Oct 2013 #44

Sounds about right. nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #45

From what I heard on the news there is no major damage. hrmjustin Oct 2013 #54

Mexico has good engineering nadinbrzezinski Oct 2013 #55
