Default Did you feel that?

A little rockin' and rollin' this morning. They say 5.4 centered 40 miles North of Evansville. 4.9 felt at Gary airport.
It woke us up. Our old house will shake just as much durring a bad thunderstorm, but not for 10 seconds. That was wierd!

Yup. Felt it up here. Bed was shaking from side-to-side, not up-and-down like usual.

We felt it.

At first I thought I was having one of those special dreams.

Went to bed late, I was dead f'in tired, didn't feel anything. The walls coulda come down and I'm not sure I would have noticed. My buddy said his bed shook like 'The Exorcist.'

The funny thing was, we just put a wood floor in our bedroom. The cat was scared to death when the shaking started. She came running upstairs, couldn't stop to jump and slid into the bedpost. I think that was what woke us up.
The say it lasted 10 seconds, seemed a lot longer than that.
