Shake Rattle and Roll: Easter 2010 Baja Earthquake

Nothing like a little earthquake lasting about 90 seconds to shake up your Easter with the kids. My boys got the chance to experience their first earthquake and didn’t stress it.

Probably helped that we were outside and didn’t have stuff falling down on them. So it sort of didn’t kill our mood.

Some news: KPBS says…

The magnitude 7.2 quake was centered near Guadalupe Victoria in Baja California. The USGS reports it’s the largest earthquake to shake the region in 18 years.

There have been three large aftershocks so far, including one that registered a 5.5 magnitude, and other smaller temblors, USGS said.

We’ll see how things turn out tomorrow. The kicker is what the unseen damage has been – elevators, infrastructure, and so on.
