This morning, about 5:30, I was downstairs when I heard a strange rumbling  sound. I assumed that the screen door was ajar and blowing in the wind. So, I opened the front door and closed the screen door.

When I went back upstairs, Kathy asked me what I did. She said that the toilet was rattling. I told her that she needed more fiber in her diet. She said no, the whole house was rattling. I said she definitely need more fiber in her diet.

Then, when the 6 am news came on, they announced that we had experienced an earthquake. 5.4 on the Rickter scale.  Impressive!

We had an earthquake about 20 years ago.  It rattled the dishes.

Fortunately, we don’t have many earthquakes.  But, we get the same effect from low flying jets.
