@JENGOSMonkey I WAS THERE FOR '89! I was a kid, but I remember the water coming out of the swimming pool in huge waves and everything falling from the shelves! I was actually born in San Jose, but moved around a lot later LOL I hear the wildfires are more of a concern for you guys now? That's scarier than quakes for me...
Critters that call me grandma
-
One son and wife have Mona, an enormous rottweiller who sometimes knocks me over in her eagerness to say hi to grandma. They also have Toad, a black lab puppy and Rufus, a fat cat who was rescued from a neighbor's roof. My son in California has Pete, a parrot, who likes to sit on his shoulder while he's working at the computer and says Change the channel, dork, to which my son replies Dude, this is a computer not a television. He also says Turn the light out buddy. They are currently working on saying Hi Grandma, so any day now I expect to get a very strange phone call….
