Always good to remember that Mother Nature is still in charge!  Did you know what it was when it started?  We had a small one in Michigan about 15 years ago - nobody could figure out what was happening.  We all looked up to see if we could see the jet making the sonic boom!  So unexpected when you don't live in California, isn't it?

I didn't know what it was never been in a earthquake. Heard the noise before the shake thought it was a military jet fly over but the news came on and said it was a earthquake a 5.1 felt as far down a Texas to far up north into kanas also felt in Saint Louis Missouri

We had an earthquake in England the other year.  It was in the middle of the night; it woke me up but not Blokey and he didn't believe me in the morning until it was all over the news.  Very exciting (but only because we don't expect it to happen here so much.)

Wow. A 5.1 is a pretty good shake.  I lived up in the San Francisco area for the 10/17/98 at 5:04 pm shake.  That was a 7.0 but I live in earthquake country.

We have them here too from time to time, but they rarely go over a 3.  There was one in Ontario and Quebec a few months ago that was a 5, I think..

Living in Ca, we do have our share of earthquakes. So far, none of them right here and none of them close to home. DH is absolutley scared out of his wits by them and is paralyzed in his chair if one hits.

Hope I never have to experience an earthquake - they must be scary and dangerous!
