This morning around 4am I was watching tv and experienced the scariest thing! It all of the sudden sounded like someone was blowing up our apartment building. The doors were slamming/shaking, and stuff was shaking on my dressers. I actually hid under the covers for a few minutes before getting up to go out and see what happened, and I couldn't find anything. I wondered if I was crazy until a friend from work called to ask me if I "felt that" and of course I did. That's when we figured it had to of been an earthquake and sure enough, it was. I live at the Pines around the Cave Spring area where the earthquake apparently started.
