I felt the earth move...

under my feet. We were awakened at about 4:40 a.m. to our house rattling. At first, I thought it was the cat messing around, then I thought it was the wind, and finally I realized it was sustained. I asked my husband what was going on (not that I didn't have a clue) and he responded that he thought it was an earthquake. Indeed it was. We stayed awake a bit longer to learn that a 5.4 earthquake had it's epicenter located a little over 100 miles south of our house.

It really was a bit of a surreal experience, thinking you know what's going on but trying to determine what you should do and before you can think, it's over.
