The best thing we ever bought were these "gumboots" a must for living here, in particular in this part of the city. The "gumboot" is ideal for eathquakes as this bring up liquafaction and keeps you busy cleaning up for a few days, or like yesterday "snow". With many people moving away this part of the city, its becoming a very quiet place to live, so if you like solitude "come here" [Smile]

. Anyway the experts are drilling holes in our street to see if the properties can be repaired, and what foundation "if any" can be placed to take the shakes. Well back to "gumboots" and a couple of photos taken yesterday, as its not all negative, after all we can still build a "snowman"

his and hers.

our power poles used to be straight.

some kids building a snowman...well not much else to do as most of the sport complexes have had it. [Frown]

my grandaughter Zoe "no school today" checking out the snowmen across at the park.

Graham. [Smile]
