Earthquake?

So locals, did anyone else feel an earthquake around 4:40am today? Very freaky. Tell me we didn't imagine this.

Yep it was a 5.4 earthquake out of West Salem.

Thanks, 4 is crazy, I almost wish I'd woken the kids up. It was interesting. I'm glad it was light here. I don't see any reports of real damage. I reported what we felt to USGS, but one of the questions was about cracks in the walls...we wouldn't notice new ones.

Actually a 5.2 earthquake (USGS revised their earlier estimate). I had gone to bed about a half-hour before and woke David up over Kieran. It was pretty crazy! The kids slept right through. Funny thing is it happened two years almost to the minute after Kieran was born! I guess the cosmos wanted David and I to wake up and remember what we were doing two years ago at that time lol!

I just almost finished repair all the cracks in my old walls and my first thought was, oh no, am I not going to have a house to sell.
