Shakey Ground

Woke up this morning at 4:37 and it felt like the bed was trembling. Then shaking. I must be dreaming but the pull chain on the ceiling fan was rattling against the shade.

Max got up so I let him out into the warm 60 degree morning. I check the t.v. but they have nothing on ('news as it happens', yeah, right) Yet again, the web has information:

Magnitude 5.4 event 19 miles SE of Olney, Illinois this morning. 131 miles from STL
