I'm glad things are quiet at the moment, you certainly have had more than your fair share of shocks :)Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03156106727490224625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8103444788040259884.post-9760060077583999872012-09-04T12:57:58.846+12:002012-09-04T12:57:58.846+12:00Earthquakes are scary!

And yes they are noisy. The September one sounded like a jet plane heading for the house.<br /><br />Mount Cook is quite beautiful but quite dangerous. I can fully understand your attachment to the area your brother is buried. It is a lovely place.fabric epiphanieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08315635356310954354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8103444788040259884.post-81584344873277863222012-09-04T12:54:27.975+12:002012-09-04T12:54:27.975+12:00I think we underestimate sometimes how resilient k...I think we underestimate sometimes how resilient kids actually are.fabric epiphanieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08315635356310954354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8103444788040259884.post-53267697521389766022012-09-04T11:58:49.260+12:002012-09-04T11:58:49.260+12:00I presume you live in Christchurch - such a pretty...I presume you live in Christchurch - such a pretty city but it must be scary. We had an earthquake a couple of months - the epicentre was only about 20kms away and it was the largest earthquake Victoria had had in a century. Although it lasted less than a minute we were all quite scared - the house really shook and so noisy -so I can`t even begin to imagine what it must have been like for you guys. Actually NZ holds a very special place for me as my brother is bured in Burkes Pass near Timaru - died mountain climbing on Mt COok. <br />I am having a little blogging break but I am still sewing when I can !

So far, not a single kid today has mentioned anything about earthquakes so I've let the memorial-thingy I had planned just slide. It's good I guess, that they are so busy getting on with living.
