And just to make 2020 even more interesting....

Woke up to an aftershock from a 5.7 magnitude earthquake at 7:09am.

Aftershock I felt at 7:15am being 3.7 magnitude.

A generous shake to the house, but not really violent like closer to the epicenter/main quake.

Enough to wake up most of the state. My phone went off for a little while after that with family asking about me.

Some people say bad timing in the middle of the coronavirus issue, but because of the virus we had most of the community shut down and started quarantining already so not everyone was out and about and there's another reason to stay home.

Well, given the stores are empty, we should all be good with at least 72 hour kits.

Still feeling aftershocks, hours, maybe days, after. Kinda making me motion sick.

No fatalities. Minor damage. Assessing structural damage at this point. The worst it seems to be a mobile home park shaken off their foundations with gas and power issues. Many people displaced because of structural issues (so much for home quarantine) and power is out for approximately 40K people.

All the while, with this latest upset, we are all still trying not to get the virus.

Coronavirus hit more close to home and a week later an earthquake.

We will recover.

One day at a time...

just stoppin by to say hello, are you ok?

-be well
So are you in the Salt Lake area then?
My brother and his family is and I sent him a similar text- already concerned about all of my family since none of them are close enough to check up on or help if they needed it and he didn’t respond. I only got an update from my parents through the grapevine 10 hours later.

It’s strange how they’re all no farther away but FEEL unreachable now.
