CORRECTION ABOUT FOUND FIDO!

Talk about a brain fade....The dog we found is mostly white Labrador. I don't even know what a Doberman looks like. Maybe I don't want anyone to claim this smart, sweet dog. Thanks, Maryolive Shoupe
(Original message on 10/21/10: A lovely, loving, young mostly white Doberman male has been on the bay
at Las Barracas (2-3 km north of Cabo Pulmo) for about 10 days. Has
he wandered away from you? Decision time for us is a couple of days so
reply asap to theshoupes@gmail.com)

EARTHQUAKE REPORTS

a. My wife and I were having lunch at Carmen's new restaurant and we felt the earthquake. The fella sitting at the next table didn't feel anything. It was very light and lasted maybe 10 seconds. Our son called from the States last night and said he saw on internet news that it was 6.9 and located 85 miles north of
La Paz.

b. I was a geology major and even though that was a long time ago, I know that even big earthquakes (this one was at 6.7) are normally felt a long way away. But not always. Below is a link of just exactly where the epicenter was. So, your phone calls were justified based on the data available. It was big and it was close.
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=24.8427,-109.1712%28M6.7+-+Gulf+of+California+-+2010+October+21+17:53:14+UTC%29&t=h&z=6&iwloc=A
(remember when there is a long link that takes two lines, never leave any spaces when you copy it. Cheryl)

c. I have experienced 3 earthquakes in the past. I was lying in bed in my RV at Playa Norte and I felt my rig moving and saw items hung on hooks move back and forth. I remember thinking "this feels like an earthquake". I hadn't heard anything about earthquakes until I read the posting in BPE. It was mild compared to the other three. Cazz
