Earthquake

At about 4:35am (cdt) we got woke up to a 5.4 Earthquake and just about scared the living  out everybody in the house. They are saying it centered in the mid state of Illinois and could be felt as far away as W.Virginia and some other surrounding states. I hope nobody got hurt during this moving experience. :shakehead

Wow that is kinda scary. When was the last time there was an earthquake in the central united states. Oh yeah and Vinnie if the one that made the Mississippi flow backwards and rang bells in Boston happens again I bet you will feel it.

It woke me up too.
Our Lab sleeps on the floor next to the bed and I thought it was her pushing on the bed or something, I looked at her and she was still sleeping.
At that point I thought maybe I was imagining things and went back to sleep.

When I heard it on the radio this morning, it all made sense.
