I felt it in my classroom floor and then the projector started to rattle in the ceiling. I knew it wasn’t normal.
It wasn’t the feel but the sound of rumbling that threw me off. I didn’t expect an earthquake to be loud?

Used to sell firewood for $5 a face cord, deliverd
That shore is purdy!The problem with this stuff, like with cars, boats, motorcycles, chainsaws, etc., is that once you are exposed to the possibilities you get hooked and have fantasies!
Also, I'd think a Purdey over and under would be better for clays.

Reported locally in Central Mass. and towards Boston that they felt it. My wife and I did not feel it. Some people within a few miles of us did.

I was over at the farm today and saw this tree down in the back field. I think it is a Cherry tree if my memory serves me right from this far away. It either came down in the ice storm a week ago or during the many days of high winds this week.

This is one of the things I had to deal with… extreme sediment coming from the water main. This was out of my hot water tank!
We were watching coverage of the quake on TV at 6:00 when we got a pretty good aftershock. Not as long or strong as the initial one, but the house still shook, and my wife (who was walking dogs during the first one and did not notice it) got scared for a moment!
Two minutes later, the newscaster was talking about it!
I'll have to order T shirts ... I survived the shake!!!

These are the pre-shocks to a big one… …or a volcanic eruption.
Yes my cell is in the PM. I can be available most days with some prior notice
Frame is clean 
Sounds good.
We’ve had several here last few weeks, always surprises me how loud they are.

In western Ma did not feel an earthquake, and I was working the basement at 10:30. I know because I had a spam call at 10:30.
Got a flail mower from Titan, no order email but it came 2 days later. Of course it came when we had snow, had the18 wheeler stay on the street and got it with the tractor. My wife wanted it so bad she skipped over doing a kitchen counter. We have 800 ft driveway with wild roses grape vines and assorted brush that eats up our driveway every year

Well, I was pissed she was giving up on softball
But, seeing she’s one of two freshmen playing both ways…
And she plays QB as a freshman
And, she rushed for three TD’s and threw for another AND it would have been two throwing TD’s but the receiver dropped it, literally hit her in her chest!!
I guess I can’t be too upset….
I was actually beyond proud jumping around the bleachers like a fool telling everyone, “number 2!!! That’s my girl!!!”
They won 40-20, it was 33-0 at half
At 40-7 they stopped playing both ways and let the other girls get some time on D

As for the quake, we had one car almost fall off the lift at work. Some boxes came off the shelves in parts
I honestly was arguing with a customer in the shop, his son put three gallons of DEF in the diesel tank and he couldn’t understand why I wasn’t going to warranty it.
I told him five times, GM doesn’t warranty stupidity and to call his insurance company if he wanted to
He wanted to see the proof, the crystallized fuel filter was the nail in the coffin
I was walking him back to my office when the quake hit….

She seems like quite a kid. Lot of determination in her face.
Mixed with heat and pitchy wood it turns to near concrete that takes days soaking in the Purple stuff to break it down enough to chip off.
I’ve done a few for a local wood yard that was “saving money” with cheap Costco cooking oil.
He doesn’t use it anymore

Having lived in the cali Bay Area for 30 yrs before heading to Idaho, a 4.7 doesn’t even get my attention
We presume we are standing on Terra Firma around here ... we don't live on the "shaky side"!
