Shake'n Quake

Here is the USGS map of the earthquake and aftershocks (48 above magnitude 2.5 and counting) over the past 12 hours.  In spite of the original magnitude and the many aftershocks, no injuries are reported and damage is relatively minor and that was mostly limited to the areas from Greenville to Chester and around lake Almanor.

Markup

No, not HTML, or XML, or the international standard SGML!
A different SGML: Street and Ground Markup Language  :-)
The markup appearing on the streets and on the ground around Quincy.
You know - like spray-can gang tags, but these are done by workers in trucks with spray-cans of particular colors to show the underground utility locations.

Parking

... is an action verb.

Quincy on Today

The Pineapple Express has come to town, and the TODAY show took note.

They never mention the 300 beautiful days we have every year.

More smoke

Judging from the latest news report, this may be the last photo with blue sky for a while.

Looking NW on CA highway 70 from near the Plumas County Courthouse.

The smoke plume from the "Chips" fire is clearly visible stretching
from northwestern Plumas County east into Nevada.

Smoke!

Looking northwest from Quincy Junction Road 8pm July 31, 2012.

Not a welcome sight!  Smoke from the "Chips" fire -- one of two burning nearby.  News story.

Bee Wear

Apparently the swarm has moved up in the world.

Swarmette

Things are buzzing on the sunny side of Main Street.

Macabre

This may not be as portable as a chainsaw, but as a Halloween instrument it is equally frightening.

Post no Posts

You may post your sign on facebook, but you can't post it here.

No More

No more dry cleaning at the Dry Cleaning Co.
In fact there is now no dry cleaner in the county. The owners have been trying to sell the business in order to retire. The wife, who did the dry cleaning, finally did quit so now its only a laundry. If you want to buy a business that has no competition and a captive customer base, give them a call.

No lumber or supplies here.

No neighbor-loving here;

they silenced both community radio and the oldies station.

No's

No shit.

No water.

No parking.

No more.

Let smoking dogs lie

As long as your dog is not smoking alcohol

is it welcome at the Farmers' Market?

Hair and there

The fine print says: NO EXCEPTIONS

One Stop, then DDG

You only get one stop here because next door you drop dead, gorgeous.

Darts

Please sit in the middle chair Walter.

Also Mr. Tell, would you mind balancing this apple on your son's head?

Dead en Bridge ou

Oops.

Not your urban landscaping

My camera is on vacation (here, here, & here), but this photo from a Breaking News story on the local newspaper website shows what a little bit of rain and frost can do when properly applied. This is a few miles down the main road from Q-topia to the valley of fruits and nuts.
