    My first earthquake

    http://quake.wr.usgs.gov/recenteqs/

    So trippy, was sitting in my friends living room enjoying a great Easter afternoon when I thought I felt a huge wind gust hit the window. After a few seconds it was apparent it wasn't the wind. House shook for 45 seconds to a minute with the last 20 seconds being very strong. We got one aftershock. Definately an experience. Hoping the pool is ok. We are checking on it now.

    you mean the pool you just finished rebuilding? that would suck, but congrats on busting your cherry!
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    My son just texted us from Tucson and he felt it there. Had no idea what it was they were wondering why
    the building started to shake.

    I just rebuilt the filter and the hot tub motor, I have no control over the earth and concrete that hold the water in. Coupld of tiles around the hot tub were loose. Can't see any cracks so just have to watch the water level.

    So what are you saying? You don't have the power of God over the Earth?

    I think more startling than the earthquake was that my son was in the library on a Sunday night studying!!

    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
