Drop Cover Hold On

The Trans Mountain Pipeline people had a course on earthquake reaction techniques recently. The drill is a for Quick Drop, Cover, and Hold On protocol. The skill will develop a sense of safer place to wait out a quake by locating a large piece of furnature by a interior wall and position your self by DCH.

Sobering note to post on!

Earth quakes, natural disaster sand all kinds of physics conspire with human error to make an interesting life for us all. Duck and cover is a good skill set to maintain a view of the world around us. Remember to get up again and keep on going. More to the point allow others the same grace. We are all connected some how to each others error, omissions and adventures. Good luck and carry on…

Thank you providence for my youth in Merritt BC and the time and grace given by among others, the Trans Mountain Pipeline as it established here, giving us a future, not perfect, with flaws that were most often a reverse side of opportunity, if we were smart enough to see them.
