We are being shaken up!

I know things have been shaky at the SDA, but Reno, Nevada lately has been ridiculous. We are averaging about 50+ earthquakes a day. Granted, most are not felt, but we get a few good shakers each day that reminds us that Mother Earth is quite active. The Geologists I work with think it's a new fault that's doing all the shaking. Many of the epicenters are under a new and expensive subdivision. I guess their housing prices will be dropping for awhile till things settle down.

I find it quite exciting. I know I'm kinda twisted, but it's a humbling experience and reminds me just how small we really are in the big scheme of things. I spent much of my youth in Southern California and weathered many larger earthquakes, always enjoying each one.

I know this post has nothing to do with adoptions, but just had to give it a mention. If you want to see a map of earthquakes in the US, go to www.usgs.gov and click on the earthquake maps on the left.

Nothing new, just happy Saint Patrick's day

I don't expect to hear anything soon so we are just waiting,...patiently. We've been trying to keep up with all the other blogs we read but there just doesn't seem to be enough time in the day. It takes us about 3-4 days to make the round trip though all the blogs and boards.

Have a Happy Saint Patrick's Day. We reckon we can say that since we're both at least half Irish by ancestry :).
