My kids are in fear the the New Madrid fault line is gonna go soon. We don't live for from it. A 3.7 is nothing, just enough to make you feel dizzy. Hopefully it doesn't turn into a bigger one.

One other time there was a earthquake in Palm Springs California and we felt it here in AZ which is about 5 and 1/2 hours from us. Anyway it was about 5AM and the dog was barking before our mirrored closet doors started to shake. The animals know ahead of time which is amazing.

I don't like the dizzy feeling...I've only been in one small one here in Michigan back in '84 or '85. I was at work and the full wall of windows were shaking.
