heyjude
Have a great day from all of us at SCM!

I think summit went to pass cards stead of the good old sticky tickets several years back...

I have a long shot request. I am working on decorating my son's bedroom and I am wanting to do a gallery wall with black and white historical photos of town. I would also love to put a lift ticket in a frame that is his birthday. Does anyone have a lift ticket from 12-2-23 that I could have?

Another thought would be to do a shadow box with matchbooks in it. Does anyone know of any local restaurants/establishments that have matchbooks available?

@DsrtPsn Hope all is ok. I know you were close to the quake! scary for sure!

I didn't feel anything here in Forest Falls. I wouldn't have known had my phone's earthquake alert not gone off.

Now reporting it as 4.9 in Sky Valley

It didn't feel like the typical quick jolts like I often feel. Those were real long slow waves. It lasted 15-20 seconds, I'd estimate. I probably wouldn't have noticed if I had been up moving around. The cabin barely creaked, but it had a pretty decent movement with it. I love to feel them and that one was especially cool with the waves.

Hey Ben Dennis here….retired and living full time in our travel trailer.We are in Borrego Springs southwest of the Salton Sea and just got rocked by the earthquake. Have good suspension made it an easy ride but definitely got shook

Sky Valley is jusr north of Indio in the hills
