Earthquake

I have experienced my second earthquake today. You can see the red pin showing where it was, 4.9 strength and 72km down of course. We are about 20km away where the blue dot is under "San Felipe". It lasted 20 seconds, getting strongest in the middle of that time, and was a noticeable shaking. There was a knocking sound too, but no obvious damage, nothing fallen off the shelves or anything like that.

The power stayed on and the Karaoke singer down the road didn't falter.

Change in our lives

The apple mangos are getting ripe, and there are lots of them. It reminds me that Clare visited a while ago. As I look around the garden, I realise there have been a lot of changes since then.

During this dry season we have started to repair the garden walls. Already the back of the pond/lake walls have been filled which makes the garden look much nicer. The end wall is half up now.

We will be planting later once the sand infill is settled.

The house and roof have been painted.

There is a small building going up in a spare space so that we can welcome children for bible studies, and we will be upgrading the garage spaces.

As you can see in the picture, we now have a car. In Filipino "4-wheels". Luxury transport is now available! It is covered to protect it from the cement you can see in the background.

Come and visit and you can see it for real.
