Well, that was different
Jul. 4th, 2015 08:25 pmWe had an earthquake this morning.
We were at the Saturday Market, already set up, sitting in the booth because it was too early to go over to the Farmer's Market, when the ground suddenly wobbled. Not really shook, not even vibrated; it felt like a big truck had gone by, lasted about that long, and I actually looked up to see the traffic on Oak Street. (Pick-ups, cars and SUVs, nothing nearly big enough.) I turned to Denise and said, "Did you feel that?"
Turns out it was a tiny thing, 4.2 magnitude, with the epicenter across the river in Springfield, and about 6 miles down. Didn't even rattle the pots.
That doesn't mean I didn't stress all day about aftershocks.
