Earthquake!

Apparently September 19th is the date for earthquakes in Mexico. Yesterday was the third time since the mid 80s that an earthquake hit on the 19th. The epiccenter was about 200 miles (around 350 km) from Puerto Vallarta and was widely felt throughout the area. 
The kids were just arriving home from the States and were going through immigration on the lower level of the airport when the overhead signs started swinging and the power went out. Security herded everyone out onto the tarmac and held them there for a while. Being in a large, open area on a lower level was pretty scary (especially for the structural engineer).
Chris was sitting on the couch and felt it. I was in the pool and didn't notice it. 

Any earth shaking news in your world?

In other news...
It's Tuesday in Mexico again, so I'll probably eat tacos again--not because it's Tuesday, but because it's Mexico. There are several American expats with restaurants here in PV, so it is easy to find a good burger or even Southern fried chicken. We had a good pizza for lunch yesterday and I may throw a fried egg on a leftover slice and call it breakfast this morning! (Why haven't I thought of this before?)

It'll be another hot, humid day in the tropics. It's actually been a few degrees cooler here than in the Midwest US over the past week or so. The Midwest may not have this crazy humidity, but neither does it have the ocean breeze nor an ocean beach.
There is certainly something to be said for this life of privilege.
