Jason, you were right when you said we called flip flops "thongs." I grew up in the 60s, and it was definitely thongs! I'm sure different people had different sayings, but tongs are kitchen utensils.
I grew up in the 60’s and yes we called it thongs. Jason you were right!
I agree, in the 60s and 70s they were called thongs.
100% Agree, thongs and flip-flops #1 names for them. lol 💜 good days, great memories!
West Coast here WA, OR, and CA they were and still are (sometimes) thongs, shower shoes, and flip flops. In Hawaii they were water shoes.
Never knew them as flip flops growing up, always "thongs" in English "chanclas" in Spanish. Tongs were used in the kitchen.
When I was growing up in the 50's and 60's we called the rubber sandals "THONGS" and there were no clothing thongs that I knew of like today! Thongs meant rubber beach sandals and that was all! (I live in NY on Long Island) How did the animals react to the earthquake? Did it do any damage on your property or in your area? Glad everything was OK.
Any sandle which has a support between the large toe and the toe next to it is referred to as a thong. The term is not limited to the rubberized/plastic beach sandals.
Now there are thong undies and swimsuits. Uggg.
Exactly!!!
Yep! They really are called thongs and if you think of those skinny strap little flip flops it makes sense they started calling skinny little strappy undies thongs too 😂😂😂
me too!
Greg has become kind of a hero to alot of us. Do you think you could convince him to just come on a video and give us all a hello ? It would be so nice.
I was thinking the same thing!! He needs to pop in on a podcast or something one time!!
My daughter and I were out riding our horses and almost at the same time both horses just froze, and they got pretty nervous! It was a very scary. We were near a small creek and we could see the water ripple. It was a 3.5 on the scale. It may as well been a 10 the way it felt from being on that horse!! We had to get off and walk them home.🐴🙄
I grew up in CA. In the 50's they were zorries or thongs and occasionally they were called beachwalkers. Then in the early 60's we called them flipflops. When I had my kids in the 70s they were referred to as flipflops. When we went to Hawaii they were called slippas. Never heard of them called tongs.
Never heard flip flops called tongs. Here in Michigan in the 60s and 70s they were either flip flops or thongs. My mom calls them zorries. Never heard of thong underwear until I was an adult.
We never let our water drip over night until we expect temps below zero. But then we are in an adequately insulated house and not a camper.
Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday MaryCarl.
I'm with you! Tongs are a kitchen utensil, thongs are flip flops for the feet or inadequate underwear. Oh well, to each their own! Merry Christmas to all!
@@lindasmith2184 I’m 62 years old and we knew of them as thongs. But nowadays thongs cover just about the same as flip flops ( aka thongs)
I am from Washington/California and we did used to call them thongs. Then they came out with thong underwear and it switched to flip flops!!!
Me either...I think whomever told Justin tongs doesn't know what he/she's talking about. Def thongs. Originally from Arkansas but that's what we called them.
We called them zorries for a bit, too. I think it was a brand name in the 50s. Then after thongs.
Good morning cog family 😊 I was born in Seattle Washington don't live there now but we called flip flops thongs, nobody calls in that anymore I don't think they're called that anywhere in the united states...lol 😂 now back to the video...Love you guys 💗💗💗
I live in California and earthquakes are a common thing. We have had some really big ones. They are so scary! I have lived here my whole life and have never gotten used to them.
I was in my 30’s when I experienced my one and only earthquake. I was living in Oregon and was working in a garage. It’s hard to believe but the cement floor actually rolled. My mom was napping on her sofa and it bounced her off it.
You made me laugh out loud when you said you pictured Moody down in a crevice Mooing to get out.🐄😂💙
Merry Christmas !!! Maybe putting straw or hay bales around the camper would help with the pipes and keep the floor a bit warmer in the camper.
I'm with you Brooke, I don't like cold damp weather either. I grew up in the Willamette Valley here in Oregon. It's rainy 8 months of the year and hot as haties during the summer. I've lived in California and Alaska (both places with earthquakes). I found that the cold in AK has little to no humidity and the cold is dry. In 1990 right before Xmas we moved back to Oregon and my 2 younger boys went nuts... it was 53 degrees, the boys thought it was summer because there was no snow and the grass was green. Out they went in shorts and barefooted and my moms neighbor asked her if there was something wrong with them or me. Mom laughed and told her no that we were from Alaska and thought it was summer.
Don't even get me started about earthquakes, 1971 the Selmar quake in CA was a 7.1 was the worst one, everything fell the TV on spindly legs jumped all over the living room. Look it up you can see all the damage. Any way, just before the ground began to move it screamed the most terrifying sound I've ever heard. I was 8 months pregnant and in bed when it hit. I sat bolt upright, I normally had to roll out of bed, and yelled we're being bombed. I've been in hundreds mostly small under 3 after living in LA area for 6 yr then San Francisco for 4. Spent 8 yrs in Alaska. Yep I know earthquakes. I also lived in So Indiana and have experienced tornadoes on occasion. I prefer Oregon and the rain...
Take care, be safe, stay healthy.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
My husband lives halfway across the country several months of the year and it's nice to be able to see each other's faces on a daily basis. I think it eases the loneliness.
Just open all the cupboards in the camper and the pipes will stay warm with the heat. I was in a waterbed in Maine the last time I felt an earthquake many many years ago. It was fun. I was on the second floor of a wood built house and it swayed.
When it's your daughter and grandchildren that Liv 3000 miles away, you want to see there face when you talk to them. ❤️
I grew up in Southern California and know exactly how you felt Brooke. The thunder-like sound is the ground literally moving. Then you feel anxious for a day after. You’ll feel better, I promise 😉
I grew up in SoCal too. Don’t miss those earthquakes.
We lived in San Diego in the city of Chula Vista. I remember a 6.1 and several 5’s.. we just went on about life. I’m from northern arizona so the first few scared me. Alabama is on the meridian fault line.
Oh Brooke, just wait til you want to talk to grandbabies!! You will love seeing them❣❣❣❣
“Thongs” in 1950s SoCal. 10 cents a pair at Cornet store. They had silhouettes of them painted on the floor so you knew what size to buy. Got two pair to last the Summer…or go barefoot. Which I did most of the time.
Obviously I grew up with earthquakes. To feel a 3.0 earthquake it has to be fairly shallow. USGS shows your earthquake was at 0.0 depth. On the surface?? Do you have fracking near you?
Was Jason dancing again? 😅😂🤣
I grew up in the SF Bay Area. We were taught to stand in a door way. It happened fairly often. After we moved away there was a big one so don’t take it lightly. Stay safe.
I have a disease that is taking the use of my hands which makes it difficult for me to comment but I want so much to tell you I am honored to be a Cog Squad member. I love you as my family.
???When you build Moody a bigger pasture will you still go and see him and cuddle him as much as you do now??? 🐄❤️
Do you watch this show does it seem like you do you would know of course they would
Yes. I watch their show and have all along. It’s just that Moody would be a long way away from everyone.
@@kittysmith3761 you don’t have to be rude about her asking!! It was a legit question
@@kerrylynnparsons9441 I am sure they will. They will probably stop by more because they’ll miss him being right up front 😂
@@kerrylynnparsons9441 I think he likes where he is now, where all the action happens, next to his BFF Nug. There might be more, Brook. Bible says, "there will be earthquakes in diverse places." Luke 21:11 Speaking of the end times.
Earthquakes feel like living next to a train track when a train goes by. Experienced my 1st one years ago in Maryland.
Looking forward to all your future plans. Thank you for the smiles 😊
Wonderful podcast as always..
Have a good day ❄❄❄
I experienced an earthquake in the middle of the night several years ago here in Illinois. It felt like a truck had hit our apartment building. There was a loud sound and shaking for several seconds. Scarey! 😳
Great catching up with Y'all. Glad you didn't have any damage from the earthquake. GOD BLESS Y'ALL.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
JESUS IS THE REASON FOR THE SEASON
The way I explained the earthquake we experienced in North Georgia a few years ago, it felt like the ground was rolling like a roller coaster ride or the rolling like the tide at the beach. . It was almost like you could sense it and hear it at the same time. A very weird sensation.
Don't worry Jason, Flip-Flops are called Thongs in Australia... I think 🤔. In the UK we call "thongs" G-Strings. They say we (Aus, UK &USA) all speak the same language!!!! 😃
In New Zealand we had regular earthquake drills at school. Have been in quite a few. The worst was back in Christchurch, a 6.3 magnitude. The city was destroyed and 189 people killed :( My mother's house still has cracks and gaps in her walls.
It can be scary, that's for sure.
Our animals used to go crazy and some cats even ran away from home.
I have relatives in NZ. I swear they have an earthquake every week. 😳😳😳
@@bellazsadist251 pretty much. We're on a fault line, so is to be expected.
I have friends in New Zealand and they have experienced earthquakes that are quite large and the ground rolls under their feet at times!!! I can't even imagine!!
Honestly, most of my growing up years was in Two Rivers, Alaska. Mom & Dad sold the homestead and bought a farm in NW GA. I ended up back in Alaska but went south to visit family in GA. I thought I was going to freeze. I could feel the cold clear to my core. Alaska is dessert so the cold is dry and you have to dress for the weather because you don’t feel the cold but you better dress for it because you can freeze your hands before you know it.
One year we went on a mission trip to Denver, CO during July 4th. It was a great experience because we were warm in the city but could go visit some of the peaks ( by car) about 1 hour away and the snow was still above the car deep. Roads were clear and we saw snow while in our short sleeves 🤣
Merry Christmas from snowy SW Colorado. I love your videos, you have a nice human and animal family. Glad your earthquake wasn't destructive.
My wife face times with granddaughter in California.They like it.When my Dad would talk to his brother in England 🇬🇧 we used to laugh because he would talk so loud.We would say Daddy did you think he would hear you better if you yelled all the way over there??
Ik geniet van jullie filmpjes ga zo door 🎄☃️⛄️👍🌲
The problem with our southern winters is the humidity. One year many years ago we had friends from Upstate New York coming for Mardi Gras week. We talked to them before and told them to bring their heavier winter clothes because they were forecasting temperatures at and below freezing. They laughed and said they were used to -32 and below where they live. Well they came with their fall clothes and were borrowing clothes every time we went outside. They had problems understanding why they were so cold when they said they were layering clothes and it was still freezing them down to their bones when at home they would be fine with a couple of layers. We checked the weather channel and we found the difference was definitely the humidity levels that come with our cold. Merry Christmas 🎄 and Happy New Year 🎆 to you all. You had a very blessed year in 2021 and I hope God’s Blessings continue through out 2022.
I’m in the valley in Oregon and people don’t understand how cold it gets with humidly (blown in from our Pacific Ocean). Bone chilling cold where states that get dry cold. Huge difference!
@@mountaincreekhomestead how about you just let people live their lives and do what they like?
@@mountaincreekhomestead yes, His birthday was September 11, AD 3.
I’m in Colorado and I grew up calling flippity flops thongs.
Well it is 20 degrees here in Northern Michigan and 84% humidity. Depends where you live.
Happy Holidays 🎄. If you have fracking in your area that would explain the earth quake. Some areas in Oklahoma now have earth quakes all the time thanks to Fracking. Because of zoning they can not get insurance to cover the cost. 😒 Hope this is a one time deal🤔
Brooke,I really enjoyed todays podcast. You just jumped out there and took the lead with your stories. Listened while baking cookies for this weekend . Hope y’all have a very merry Christmas 🎁🎄!
@@mountaincreekhomestead Shame on you!
Levi Finland has a live cam and you can sit in you warm home and watch people ski and walk in the snow. We moved from blustery cold low chill factor in Wis Feb of this year to Florida. We live in northern Fl and it gets cold here also but not as cold as Wis. The temps felt so good after being in such cold weather. Merry Christmas to all of you. Looking forward to the doves to hatch and also for the blue ones to start laying.
We had one in Georgia several years ago and it scared me to death. Thought someone was under my bed shaking it. It can be very frightening! Stay safe. ❤️
I am one of the northern girls. I lived in south Dakota for five years. Now that place is COLD. We had two weeks at 40 below zero. Had to bring goats inside the house we couldn't keep the barn warm enough. We had to put electric blanket on our oil heater to keep oil from freezing. I was born and raised in PA. Close to Pittsburgh. I thought I knew cold and snow. SD is a whole different cold and snow. The snow comes in feet not inches. Anyway I am back down south in Kentucky. I see the ladies where I live putting on winter coats at 45: degrees and laugh. Telling them they don't know cold.
I love watching your videos and podcasts. God bless you and all the animals. Stay safe.
Andrew on the Kelly's Country Life built a dandy storm shelter above ground, pretty nice. Andrew has videos on the storm shelter. Good pod cast Brooke and Jason. 🇨🇦
Many years ago I was in Tennessee in my brothers trailer when we experienced an earthquake. The trailer shook so much we were holding on to our chairs for dear life. The sound that came after was like a train going through the house.
Was it April 29 2003 at about 5 am? I looked it up and I experienced that one in western NC near TN line.
I lived in New Salem NC. One morning about 5:00 am. I was rattled awake, with rubble feeling. My Australian Shepherd was going wild through the little house!
I just thought a tractor trailer full of Turkeys came to a stop at the flashing light by gearing down. It was more than that. I flipped on the news...Camden NC had a 3.5 earthquake 15 miles away! Very odd feeling!!!!
Loved this podcast can't wait to see the babies Glad you made it through the earthquake
Cog Hill Farm! Happy Holidays to you all! It’s about 17 degrees out here in Pierre. No snow for Christmas here! Roger in Pierre South Dakota
@@mountaincreekhomestead Thanks for the information SHELDON!
So excited about the pigeon news. And never thought an earthquake would shake Alabama! Earthquakes can be scary, at times it can feel like they are shaking everything apart, were I live they are frequent enough for me not to notice anything below 4, but they are never happening at the exact locationwhere I live. If you live close to the epicenter of a magnitude 3 it will feel bigger than that. ❤
Happy holidays to All.
Maybe when you build the aviary you could use it to support some of your vines. 3 reasons - some shade, protection & feed (both human & birds). Just a suggestion 🤗.
Brooke I have felt many many earthquakes in Ohio, Oklahoma and Illinois. Guess what! We would go outside and check the sky every time. 🤣Don’t know why but we all did. 🤷♀️This was before Goggle and cell phones.
Back in the eighties I was in Okinawa Japan in the Marine Corp and we had a earthquake over there one time. We all had these metal bunk beds and we're sitting there at night and the earthquake started and these metal beds start vibrating across the floor it was very very weird we all wasn't sure what just happened. just thought I'd tell you lol. I hope it didn't scare you too bad I bet the animals knew before it happened
Wow that’s exciting and I look forward to the crowns having babies and the fan tails too! Earthquakes a very prevalent over the world at the moment and I wouldn’t be surprised wherever they happen, glad y’all are okay. Merry Christmas family and the best for 2022 for all the world 🎄🙏❤️✨☃️❄️🎅🎁🥰
@@mountaincreekhomestead don't use this channel to spread your erroneous beliefs. God's word does not say celebrating Christmas is a sin. Where do you get this? give me a reference and I will read it.
I feel you about the cold Brook. I grew up in Tuscaloosa and moved years ago to South Baldwin County. I was always sensitive to cold until menopause lol. You will not believe the difference.😁
I totally understand your (Brook) lack of love for cold air. We live in upstate New York and I hurt I ache I hurt I ache...
@@joceyquailebotimer5920 I feel ya, I’ve gotten so less able to handle the cold- I live in NW CT… 🥶 37 to me is now freezing - I hope all y’all have a great Christmas!
Menopause is crazy. I am on the roller coaster from hell. 3 mo on three off. I handle the cold better too and the heat is harder to handle.
Ain't that the truth? Heat makes me ill. I stay in the house in the a/c all summer and 80-85 is our high usually. I can't stand it.
@@livingtheretiredlife3061 I used to have a bumper sticker, "Those aren't hot flashes, they're power surges"! Hot flashes were the worst! :-)
I've suffered from Seasonal Depression all my life. From Thanksgiving to Valentines Day I have a lot of problem with Depression. I've spent my time reading the bible Johns about the arrival of the Blessed Jesus. I have discovered that watching videos of the sort that you air. God Bless you and keep the good videos coming, you have no idea how much you help me with my depression.
The 1st time I was FaceTimed it was my brother calling me from Paris and he showed me the Eiffel Tower. I loved that.
One of the old school simulations was to take a square of 2"-4", firmer jello then take the point of a pencil and stick it in the underside abiut 1/2". Shake the pencil and watch the surface of the jello. Its not a very accurate model of what most esrthwuakes are abiut but, what the surface looks like is pretty close.
I'm about a 40-minute drive from the San Andreas Fault at the Cajon Pass and I think they're kind of fun. At least you don't get sucked up into the air like a tornado. Love you guys, stay safe and have a very happy healthy Christmas and New Year!🎄🙏💝⛄🐐🐔🐓🐖🐶🐮🐱🐾ps maybe a alpaca or llama in your future? 😇🦙🎁😉
Tornados scare me. I'll take take a shake.
@@erinnkemp I live in Ks and we usually know when a tornado is coming a earthquake give no notice and we have been having several I only felt one, but they have been all around us.
@@mountaincreekhomestead You would be wrong about that. If it was a sin to celebrate Christmas, the Bible would say so.
I have only experienced one earthquake and the sound was like standing on a town street when a huge lorry comes by too close. Really loud and out of place! It was a 5.2 magnitude at 30 miles.
I was awake during an early AM earthquake. It sounded like a snowplow was coming down the road with its blade scraping the street, but it was summer. I looked out the windows and there were no large vehicles on the street.??? Next day the news said we had had an earthquake. Turned out it broke our sewer line, but it took a while before we realized there had been any damages.
Hello Brooke and Jason Q&A with B&J is a good podcast glad you are all okay
I was in San Diego in 86 when there was two earthquakes. The first was at night and I slept through it. The second one was in the middle of the day. The best way to explain it is it that it's like standing on a moving surface of wiggling jello.
There's nothing like the J & B with a little M.C.!!! Love you guys....~MERRY CHRISTMAS!~
You and Brooke make such a great couple. Great family great farm
Good morning Cog hill and the Cog squad Hope everyone is having a great week and Merry Christmas to y'all love ya keep up the good work
We have quite a few earth quakes here in New Zealand - it's like lying on the bed and someone jumps on the mattress a couple of times - we build our houses and our concrete foundations for earthquakes as high as 13 magnitude
I'm from Christchurch and will never forget the big one. Was pretty scary. Luckily all my family was save. Will never be the same again.
If you want to talk about grey and gloomy, try Oregon in the fall and winter, and spring,and part of the summer. I live in the Willamette Vally (Albany,Corvallis,and Lebanon) for my first 22 years. Roger (now) in Pierre South Dakota
I grew up on the New Madrid fault, so I have experienced earthquakes off and on throughout my life. They are a little unsettling, but also very interesting to experience.
Must be Missouri. I live in Southern Illinois and am in the Wabash Valley Seismic Zone. But we are close enough to New Madrid that anything major from it would cause big damage since it's a big fault.
Baby pigeons is so homely looking when they’re little
I live alone and Facetime is a godsend as all my family live overseas and most of my friends do too. Is wonderful to see them and chat away :D
Once you have a little extra time or can have some online volunteers, a Discord channel would be good for the Cog Squad to post messages and photos. It would be pretty low maintenance but bad characters can ruin it if you don't have moderators monitoring it.
Thank goodness your podcasts are so long. You're such great company in the kitchen
Brooke I feel for you waking up when no one else does. Happened to me & my BFF. Tornado sirens going off & I couldn't get her awake. I took a chance & looked outside. Star-filled skies. But I tried to wake her for 45 mins. Excited about the gift opening!
We had an earthquake here in Va. 9 years ago. I live in Md straight across the Potomac River from Virginia. We were in our farm at that time where 1/2 of our house was a trailer. I had just walked into our bedroom in the trailer side when it shook and it sounded like the tin roof was rolling down the length of the trailer. Our small dog all of a sudden came running to me. He couldn’t figure what happened til my sister called from Florida and said you just had an earthquake! I’m 67 so it was one and hopefully only time in an earthquake.
I experienced a earthquake in Nashville , TN a few years ago. I couldn't sleep and was sitting at the kitchen table drinking hot tea. Everyone else were asleep. The shaking was intense so I hopped up to wake my husband first, but it stopped before I even left the kitchen. I found out the next day that it indeed was an earthquake.
We were in the 20s last night in Indiana. Our high yesterday was 29. I grew up with thongs not flip flops in San Diego.
Merry Christmas to you both and Mary Carl. I love how much we have learned from you all about chickens. Which ones do you find to be the best layers?
I’m from NC, I live in VA now. A lot of the words you use I grew up with. My husband tells me when I visit my family my southern accent gets very heavy. Busted pipes is totally right and mash that button.
Earthquake usually sounds like a big train coming through the house. I live in nys and we get it every so many yrs. Comes from under the lakes here shifting. The animals everything gets quiet before it hits. Next time listen when the birds quiet down.
I’m here south of Portland Oregon. We’ve had hundred of earthquakes off our coast and smaller ones inland recently. Many of us are watching the the earthquake channels. A lot has been going on lately north and south of here (northern Cali and all the way through Washington state and British Columbia). Hopefully the one you had is only a one time a pressure adjustment. Merry Christmas and sending you all great thoughts and prayers.
I absolutely love the video calls with my son, DIL and grandson. He's almost 2. They live in Pennsylvania and I live in Florida. I get to watch him play, read, dance, and whatnot. I love, love, love watching him. I've only seen him once when he was born and once this past summer for 4 days. Face time is invaluable to me
Brooke. I FaceTimed my brother today. Have not seen him for two years. Just have talked to him on phone and Texting. Love the job y’all are doing. Just don’t wear yourselves out.
I grew up outside Seattle in the 50’s -60’s. And when flip flops 🩴 first came out we called them ZORRIES‼️
This happened to me around 2 something in the morning but I was trying to ignore it but on the inside I felt really nervous and I'm in Montana. I do have family who live in the South but they haven't said anything yet.
Such a great chat. I love the variety of subjects. From earthquakes to Victorian Crown pigeons. Take care & cheers 🐨🦘🥰
I have lots of patients that will be on face time& still going about their business. They aren’t looking at each other. They just have it open. Just like they are there. Blows my mind. I’m old school.
I felt my first earthquake here, in upper East Tennessee, two years ago. Took me a bit to figure out what was going on. It seemed like it lasted a minute or more. It was 5.1 in Sparta, North Carolina. There were several when I was in California, but I never felt them ( they were around 3.0).
Now that you mention it. I grew up in Ohio as a child and we called flip flops 🩴 tongs too. I’d totally had forgotten. I now live in the Dallas/ Fort Worth area and I notice a lot of people are calling them “flips” and stuffed animals have become “stuffies”
I have lived in 7 different states in my life and Northern Ohio and south Ohio. Pronunciation and slang is different everywhere. “I” learn the local slang. Y’all just be y’all. Everyone else just needs to adapt. 💕
Can't wait for the new pigeons. MC just posted a beautiful close-up of one of the Victorian Crowns. Have a wonderful Christmas - perhaps with a couple of new grandbirds.
That will bring her a very Merry Christmas! 🎄 what a gift. Thank you 😊
I would also be concerned about being trapped inside of the underground shelter by debris falling on top of the entrance door.
I have lived through many earthquakes and only one time there was a sonic boom, it was so loud your ears hurt for almost an hour. Other sounds are not unusual. One place I lived after an earthquake the people living below us moved out the next day because as we walked across the floor their ceiling moved! We moved a couple of months later.
We had an earthquake in the DC area on August 23,2011 sometime in the afternoon. I was standing in the kitchen when I thought I heard the rumble of thunder, but at the same time, I felt a rolling sensation under my feet. I looked at the TV and within minutes the story came up about the earthquake. Weirdest feeling like being on a boat that’s going through some rolling waves. Will never forget that sensation.
I’ve learned since then that because the East Coast is older that the West, the motion from an eastern quake can be felt farther away. We do have plates on the eastern half of the country, just like the west, but the age difference causes differences in how these plates move. Just checked and it seems the epicenter of your quake was about 9 miles northwest of Clanton. You’re located at the south end of the Southern Appalachian Seismic Area (happy for Google where I got this info). Glad you’re all safe.
I can't wait for the new family birds, it amazes me at what makes our kids happy sometimes. You go girl!!!!!!
We had an earthquake in September this year. I live near Melbourne, Vic Australia in rural Gippsland. The quake was a 5.9 followed by 2 aftershocks of 4.0 and 3.1. It was pretty scarry when the walls started to move. It wasn't the first one I have experienced though. I think the worst one was quite a few years back when I watched the floor in our church auditorium undulate like the sea from back to front and it sounded like a steam train was driving through the building. Incredible! 😲🥰
Jason in a tornado shelter and sees a rat: which does he choose facing? The tornado or the rat? There a question for Q&A with B&J!
He would ride the 🌪️
Hi Guys!! I'm originally from Northern California and went thru many Earthquakes! 22yrs ago I moved to Spokane Washington and have experienced a few which are pretty rare here! I just Love your Podcasts, you are So Fun!! I watch Mary Carl's Instagram and have seen the Beautiful Pigeons a few times! God Bless and have a Wonderful Day!! 😊❤⚘🎄
Very happy to hear you all chose the above ground shalter. While i had a underground shalter i never went inside it. Due to the rain lighting and thundering. And the trees around it might have fallen on it. I only wish it was in my house. Glad you all are thinking in advance.
Coming from CA I've been in way too many earthquakes to count. I've been in ones so bad they literally threw me off the bed . I've been in several 7.9+ quakes where houses have been damaged and the power has been off for days. I've seen the streets undulate and roll. Now I live in Minnesota and kind of miss them. PS....those of us from the land of earthquakes don't even count them if they are below 5.0. LOL
Several 7.9 + earthquakes? Those are not common and quite destructive..... you must be lucky!
I was stationed in San Francisco in 1989 when the 6.9 Quake hit. We swayed for 10-15 sec. It caused part of the Bay Bridge to collapse and the collapse of Freeways in Oakland.
@@stephanieclark796 Nope hasn't happened( CA) - maybe some place else! We have not had a 7.9 earthquake in CA . We have had a few big ones and if you are at or close to the epi center it can feel larger than it really is. There are hard jerking earthquakes and rolling earthquakes(or both) and they both feel different because earthquakes move thru the earth differently. The last large earthquake in CA was a 7.1 in 2019 with only 5 deaths. So I'll take an earthquake over a tornado or hurricane any day.
BTW - New Madrid MO is much more dangerous than CA for earthquakes.
@@cathycrowder2226 7.9 just sounded unrealistic, from maybe 3 to 4 it's nothing...5 starts feeling a bit scarier and you start thinking whether you should do the emergency drill thingy, by 7.1 you think about how not to die, but from 7 to 8 there is a huuuuuuge difference in intensity. I'm from Costa Rica and am too an expert in earthquakes :) so much so that after few months you think: 'been a long time without an earthquake, we better get at least a small one soon, otherwise, we'll get a big one, and you don't want that'.
@@stephanieclark796 we actually have earthquakes all the time(most we don't feel) - which is good because it allows the plates to release stress.. Without the small quakes - as you said - we'll get a big one that will cause a lot more damage and possible death. The San Andreas Fault(locked fault) is the problem here and it's usually the one that causes the big magnitude quakes. Coming from Costa Rica I bet you have experienced some pretty good size quakes!
Oh my goodness Brooke’s story telling of the earthquake made me giggle. But I am sorry it scared you. I’m a bit worried about our earth honestly. Life is crazy isn’t it?! Merry Christmas to my fave RUclips family!
I love you guys so much. MC is such a wonderful person. You can see her love of animals shine when she looks at or even talks about her birds.
MaryCarl is an awsome kid and I see her instant gram regularly, those crown pigeons are beautiful and I can not wait for her sake for them to have babies . So do you think MaryCarl is happy on her new home on the 40? I think yes!!!! 😄

Ooooh, I love overcast and misty for Christmas. It's cozy and the Christmas lights can be on in the daytime. We can't have snow, so misty and cloudy is next best.
Tiny house would make a great flowers house. Just put big cold storage box in bed room. Tables in living spaces. Racks for supplies.
Earthquakes sometimes sound like a train or a big truck hitting the house, or rumblings. There is so much energy being released and plates are moving. Sometimes the plates are pushed into one another or there is a resistant area and the energy is stopped. It’s kind of like clapping your hands when the two meet. Glad you are all right.
