Earthquake...

I was sitting at my dining room table this evening when the table started shaking.  Then my chair was wobbling and the trinkets on the shelves started making noise.  My first thought was that a large truck was driving by but there was no accompanying noise.  The shaking started softly and crescendoed for about 10 seconds.  I was just getting ready to bolt out of my chair and out of the house when it stopped.  No damage to the home.  The only visible signs remaining were the tilted paintings in our home.

It's little reminders like these that let you know we're not always the ones in charge.
