Yesterday morning at 5:30 a.m., I was catapulted out of my deep sleep by something which sounded like an explosion. The explosion was so forceful that my house was shaking. As I was quickly moving out of my slumber, the first thought that came to mind was "The Volcano's Erupting.!!!!" Just before bed, little "O" and I had been speaking about the volcano in Iceland, which lead to me sharing about the Mount St. Helen's eruption of 1980.
No it wasn't that but I quickly realized that it was an earthquake. As I went to each child's room, everyone was sitting up in bed with wide-eyes. I, then saw lights coming on in every house around us and neighbors were clamoring to their front porches to confirm that "yes, we felt and heard that too". It was the talk of the town yesterday. So much so that I couldn't get to this space. No one was hurt, no damage was reported.The epicenter was a mile from our house.
Today, I'm finding my way to this space, but only for a moment because there are breaks in the clouds and my little garden is calling me. I'll be back tomorrow with the Fox Diaries. Have a great day everyone.
It's always nice to have company.
