An earthquake, around here? it’s true… watch more by clicking below.
Growing up on the San Andreas fault, I am used to quakes and the threat of them– even to the extent that we learned “Duck and Cover” drills in school. We grew up on Vancouver Island “waiting for the big one” to strike, and thankfully it didn’t, and still hasn’t, and hopefully won’t for a long long time.
Delaware residents and South Jersey folks weren’t terribly shaken up by this latest quake, but they thought it was pretty unusual, and certainly, something to talk about.
Did you feel it? Have you ever been through an earthquake? BLOG!!!

I’ve never had an encounter with an earth quake? This region of the country is very fortunate to be situated where natural disaters just do not occur! A little tremor every 20 years is nothing to get all shook up over!! lol. Happy Friday KLites!!!!

Didn’t feel the ‘Quake’. We are truly blessed considering all the elements and possibilities going on inside and outside of our planet. Temperatures extreme, storms, seasons off line, makes you wonder,and thankful.

It’s not that odd for a minor earthquake to happen around these parts. In fact it was maybe just six or seven years ago when there was a minor earthquake somewhere around central PA. That morning I awoke because my bed was ever so slightly rocking from side to side (I was living in King of Prussia at the time). Maybe an hour or so later I was watching the news and sure enough they reported that a minor earthquake had happened.
