Earthquake

We were awaken early this morning by a magnitude 5.4 Earthquake! The quake was centered around Olney, and could be felt as far away as Alabama and Florida. I was in a deep sleep, and for a few seconds was not quite sure what was going on. I immediately jumped out of bed, and found it a bit difficult to walk. It was by far the most intense earthquake I have ever experienced. Although the kids slept through it, I'm sure a lot of people felt it.

The earthquake was the top story on the national news, and it was one of the biggest earthquakes in Illinois history. Some people closer to the quake reported feeling several aftershocks.
