There was an earthquake here Friday morning. It woke me up but I didn’t know what it was until I asked my husband. Pretty neat (since I haven’t heard it caused any serious damage to any communities, here or nearer the epicenter). I wrote a bit about it on my personal site.

Hanging lamps swaying, items rattling on shelves, & if it’s a big one the floor itself moving. Amazing to be in a short, unexpected situation where so much of what we take for granted as fixed & stable, like the earth itself :-) , is not reliable.
Glad you’re all OK!
