Did anyone feel the earthquake at 5:30 am? I sure did!! I looked on the internet

and they say that the midwest is on a fault line and is overdue for a very

large earthquake. The web site http://www.cusec.org/Safety/safe_before.htm

They have what to do before/during/and after an earthquake, and how to prepare

for one. I also thought that if we had an emergency kit prepared, it wouldn't do

much good if the house caved in on it and we couldn't get to it. It seems like

a better idea to have it in a trunk with a waterproof tarp over it, and if its sitting

on a crate, that would be good to discourage water from getting in the bottom

if it rains a lot and ends up in a puddle. At least this would get you buy for a few

days.
