I was in the bathroom of a local shop owner.It sounded like a train coming through the wall.I opened the door and one of the mechanics was raising a car.I said "That lift is raising hell and vibrating the whole shop".He stopped lifting the car,but the noise and vibration didn't stop.Then i said"Is that a earthquake?"He responded "I guess so"The shop owners wife was already outside yelling "Get out of the shop it's a earthquake"I'm thinking yeah that's the smart thing to do.So i got out of the shop about the same time it quit.I've never felt a earthquake before,but now realize how powerful they are as i had friends from over 100 miles away calling and asking if i felt the earthquake.I had to communicate over Facebook and Tige Owners to contact my wife and family as Cell and phones were out for over an hour.Needless to say it was my lucky day as everyone i knew came out okay.I count my blessings everyday.
