ole_dawg There are many varieties of hummingbird moths. See the link at the bottom. Some are quite lovely. Their primary characteristic is an ability to hover, dart back and forth, and zoom to and from flowers, etc. That's why people think they're hummingbirds until they look closer. The tomato hornworm becomes a hummingbird moth, and so do lots of other large caterpillars that munch where you don't want them to be. My favorite pest caterpillar is the parsley-worm. It becomes a swallowtail butterfly. But anyway, I'm pretty sure you had a hummingbird moth in your garden. They're quite different from night-moths. Here is a link that might be useful: Hummingbird Moths

I felt the vibrating in my left arm for the time today, so I did internet search to look for possible cause. It led me to this conversation. I am diabetic (30 years) and just recently got a CGM. I have alarm for high blood glucose readings set to vibrate. When I felt the sensation today, I assumed I had better check my phone app to see what was going on with sugar level. I looked for my phone, and was surprised to see it lying on the table in front of me. Not "attached to me" in the pocket next to my stomach where I normally keep it. Scared me. Interested that so many diabetics seem to report similar problem. Just had Doc appt yesterday, so won't see him again for 3 months. Definitely something to discuss. I'm wondering why left arm though. Is diabetes really that specific? :-) Thanks to all for sharing!

Hey not sure whatr bulb you are talking about but in most cases if you want to use a non flourescent bulb you should use a par30 type that reflects the heat down from the can light. Not all bulbs just because of the watts can be used in some cans. look inside can for bulb info and use what the cans prescribe.. hope that helps some.. JD out

Seattle, Washington, USA is in an earthquake zone. In fact, the zone extents up through the coastal part of Alaska and on along the Aleutian Islands. The Cascade peaks in the US are all volcanoes sitting on a subduction zone where the Pacific plate dives into the bowels of the earth. The Pacific plate slides under the continental plate off shore in the Pacific Ocean. Small aftershocks and tremors are common up to a year or more after a main shock. If you live in that area, you have felt an aftershock. If your building is on fill that was not properly compacted, you can expect settling problems. Often, signs of settling first appear in concrete garage and basement floors. Some cracks in these floors are to be expected. I have a settling crack that appeared in my garage floor about 25 years after it was built.
