EARTHQUAKE!
This is the webpage I went to:
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_all.html
I have received two phone calls from family stateside to see if we're OK. We did't feel anything here in Los Barriles. I think it's all over the news. Did anyone feel it here on the East Cape?
AOL news had reports that Los Mochis was shaken and it was felt in La Paz. Cheryl

==========================================

Monday morning we met some trainers for our "rattlesnake avoidance" training for our 6 month old puppy. After having the procedure explained to us, a shock collar was fitted to our 20# dog and a long leash was attached. The training took place on the entry road to the Bermuda Dunes airport in a dirt area with bushes on one side. A snake skin was semi buried. Our dog was walked near the skin and when she was close by and showing interest, a mild shock was administered. Next, an 18" long snake was taken out of an ice chest by hand (!) and placed on the ground. Again our dog was allowed to come near the snake and start to sniff it and was again shocked. She did a couple of whirls and tried to shake off the collar. The snake was muzzled with surgical tape and could not strike. The handler said that she would not put our dog in jeopardy and that is why she handled the snake bare handed.

This was repeated with 2 more snakes, different types of rattlers and about 3 ft or more in length. Basically our dog learned very quickly that she did not want anything to do with snakes. After each zapping, she was allowed to calm down, patted, and she had no dramatic reaction to the momentary shocking. In our opinion this was a well thought out procedure and one we will repeat next fall. The benefits certainly out weigh the short term discomfort to our buddy. Here is the link to the people we used and highly recommend. <info@rattlesnakeaversion.com> mamablackbear@gmail.com
