YOW....just had a 5.0 a few miles from here. REALLY shook stuff up, knocked a few things off my shelves, but no damage I can see. Checked the building, and all seems OK...no broken glass or anything. The phones are still out (par for the course), but I emailed my son and girlfriend, and they're OK.
This is the fourth big bump I've been through since I moved out to SoCal in 1980, and the first time it rattled *me*!

Merry Christmas - <i>He Is Born</i> -
I'd like to wish my friends here a very Merry Christmas, and a very Happy New Year. We'll be having our Christmas Dinner with family...
Still waiting for the Big One here in the south too.

Many folks don't realize that Georgia sits on a fault line.
Nonetheless,glad to hear most everything is okay.
Glad you're okay!
ReplyDeleteThanks, guys! The first hit was a real jolt....just about knocked me out of my chair! This was stronger here than the Northridge quake in 1994, but then it was a whole lot closer.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're okay! Those are NOT fun...
ReplyDeleteI am glad to hear you are ok. We had a little one here in Indiana.
ReplyDeleteI remember back in 1971 when I lived in Northern Illinois we had a small one. About 3 on the Richter scale, IIRC.
ReplyDeleteScared the daylights out of everybody.
Wonder what my friends 'back home' would have done Sunday night when this one jolted us back to reality.
