Earthquake: I felt that one!

There have been quite a few earthquakes in Alaska since we moved up here in January...but I always hear about them from someone else.

Well this morning I felt my first earthquake!

It happened at 7:02 a.m. and my first mostly-still-asleep thought was "why is the train driving so close to my house?"  Then I realized what was happening and I said out loud "I felt that one!".

Luke was awake too and he responded: "it would've been hard not to!".

It measured a 4.6 and it happened in the Cook Inlet, 19 miles SW of where we live.


Let the good times roll...er....shake?  But not to much...let's not get crazy or anything.
