Earthquake Safety Tips

[suzanne sanders]

Pictured below is the California 1989 earthquake.  At the time of the earthquake, I was living in the Bay Area and I was 7 1/2 months pregnant with my daughter Raquel.  I had a friend who was at the World Series, it was the Oakland A's against the San Francisco Giants.  She was amazed and thankful no one panicked and nothing happened to the stadium

 There were many people who were not prepared, including myself.  It occurred to me that I have not put any blogs up lately on preparedness.  I am here to remind you that  earthquakes can hit Oregon. We are actually long over due for a big one.  

Take some time to go over the Safety tips, and then go over them with your family.  

Make a plan and prepare.

I have provided a few links:

Do Not Put This Off.  

It does not take that much time to read, inform yourself and your family and  then prepare.

Kung Fu is all about being prepared. We prepare ourselves for a possible attack that we hope will never occur. We should also prepare for natural disasters with the hope that we will never have to use what we have prepared for.
