Ground. Shaking!
Apr. 18th, 2008 11:42 amIt'll have been all over the other journals by now, cause I sleep late, but last night we had an earthquake. The center was some distance south, around the kentucky/indiana/illinois border, where it has variously been reported as a 4.5 and a 5.2. Here it was more like a 3ish.
Of course, I had no idea when I woke up in the night and my new loft bed (photos forthcoming!) was shaking. I thought I must have made some grevious engineering error and got out of bed fast. When further inspection proved that no ropes were broken, all bolts were in place, and all lumber was stable, I got back into bed, and it happened again!
Didn't find out it was an earthquake till about a half hour ago. How weird.
