at about 3:15 AM. Woke everyone up-no damage or anything but it was a tad rattling. Felt we were overdue for one of those.

My first earthquake was close to Edwards Air Force base. I was in my big rig, this was when I was solo driver, before I met hubby, and woke up to my rig jerking all over the place. I thought another rig had hit mine! But then the jerking kept going on and on. I looked out and saw trees swaying! Then it all stopped. Actually, I thought it was pretty cool...

Well, I don't live in CA, but I do live about 90 miles from the New Madrid fault line. We have a few tremors at various times. Hope we never get the big one like 200 years ago! Eeepppsss!

Glad you had a small one!

Love,

I do live in California and I have been in some really large ones and don't like them a bit but my first experience with one was in Colorado and it was in the middle of the night with a 6. earthquake. That was scarey so most of these here I don't notice so much unless they get large and my living room is swaying back and forth... don't care for those that much.. that is part of this state though...I live up by Eureka life is mostly quiet...
I really am not an earthquake person...

Glad everything is ok, Sherrie!

I live in Wisconsin so earthquakes aren't well known in these parts. Several years ago I woke up to my bed shaking. It wasn't horrible, but enough to wake me up. Never in a million years would I have thought it was a earthquake.....I did, however, think it was a ghost under my bed. I closed my eyes and pulled the covers over my head hoping whatever it was under my bed wouldn't kill me in my sleep. This may sound silly, but I was relieved when I found out it was a tremor and not something under my bed.

Happy to know all are okay. Scary any way.
