Hi everyone. For those of you who haven't heard there was an earthquake here this morning. The epicenter was about 50 miles from here so it was fairly minor for us. We felt it and the chandeliers were swinging a little bit, but that's about it. Apparently it was a 6.3 on the Richter Scale at the epicenter and caused quite a bit of damage there. But none here that I have heard.
I have had several calls this morning asking if Beau was at work. We are all thankful that he was not. (Some of you may not know that he works in an underground mine.) The mine he works in is another 30-40 miles away from the epicenter. And, there haven't been any reports of damage in any of the other mines around, so all is well!

Man, car wrecks, earthquakes....what kind of crazy place did you move to?! ;)
I saw it on the news this morning and wondered if you felt it. Glad it wasn't any worse!
Ok, Mel is right... should we be concerned for the safety of our good friend Joy? Glad you are ok?
I heard about that this morning! I did not know that you were so closer...how scarey. I am glad everyone is okay and you didn't have any damage!
