I live near Albany, NY and we felt the earthquake. I was rocking Lucas and the rocking chair started moving sideways. I thought I was getting dizzy. My grandson, Daniel (12 years old) was looking at me with his eyes and mouth open. My hubby was on the comp and thought he was getting dizzy! Crazy!!

Earthquakes can be a little UN-nerving! We haven't had one for a while!

it was kinda crazy. It only happens around here every decade or so.. we have smaller ones but none of this magnitude.

Here in Bakersfield, either. We usually feel them once in a while, only very slightly. None for a couple of years.
