Don't worry, it was just Tirofijo's descension into hell.

Would be close timing. I'm just nervous if something else is coming. This is the third time the place has shaken since November.

A las 2 y 17 minutos de la tarde un fuerte temblor sacudió el centro del país. el temblor fue sentido con bastante intensidad en todos Bogotá. De momento no se conoce el epicentro y la intencidad. En manizales y otras ciudades del centro del país se sintió el movimiento. Los primeros reportes indican que no hay desastres ni víctimas."

LOL! Felt it here as well, like a head buzz for a few seconds...

- everytime i see construction here, it scares the chit out of me. this place would crumble into rubble if anything major hit.

trying to walk a straight line on sour mash and cheap wine...

3 months ago there was an engineer on TV commenting that a minor quake would wipe out a good part of Medellín based on the building structures and their location on the hillsides.

Wow 5.7. Alma thanks for the link

Usually there's a follow up quake after a few tremors, yes? I can hear my mom now, "Put on clean underwear before the big one hits!"

we have had our share in Medellin in the last year. don't need any more. We got it easy compared to Asia!

More to come, Canada just found evidence the polar ice cap is offically breaking apart. We'll be leaving behind a great place for our kids.
