: Hey any of you fellow NE boat builders get a shakey awakening this morning?
: WOW I woke up and thought maybe I was visiting Rehd and all those shakey
: califonians.

: Man the P wave showed up and there was all kinds of bouncing. The primary
: wave lasted almost a minute then we had about 30 seconds and the S wave
: really did a number! THe S wave shook here for nearly 40 seconds I found
: myself afterwards trying to calculate the difference for distance.

: We went to bed last night to some really good northern lights last night
: awoke to an earthquake. 100 degree weather and snow in the same week
: Universe is putting on quite show in these parts right now!

: Earth is such a cool place

I was just laying in bed watching my goldfish line up against the glass demanding
breakfast when I thought someone was playing "Jumanji!" and the rhino and elephant
charge was headed my way!

Really, at first I thought it was a big truck coming down the hill. My house is about 30 feet
from a road semi's sometimes use as shortcut to Vermont. But I never heard an engine and
the bed kept shaking then my wife ran into the house from the garden yelling "Earthquake!"

This is the first quake I've ever felt! It only lasted for about 20 seconds here in Greenfield.

How often do you people in quakeland have noticable shaking?
