Earthquake in Illinois?

Posted in Family

I am up early (4:30AM) paying  bills before leaving town and just experienced quite an earthquake moments ago!  I was at the kitchen table....the glassware was shaking, the log cabin walls were creaking, the window panes were shuddering, my writing table was moving and my glass of water had waves in it!!!

I subsequently learned that Illinois and Missouri are at the 2nd highest risk for large earthquakes, due to the New Madrid fault.....California, of course, being the first.  And when we moved here, I only thought I had to dodge the tornadoes!
