Default EARTHQUAKE in Illinois

Woke up at 1:00AM Monday,(Nature calls ),and as I am falling back to sleep,at 1:10AM the bed starts to shake eratically,the Pictures move around,and the Vertical blinds are rockin back & forth.
The News says we had a 4.5,& the Epicenter was Ottawa Il.,Felt all the way down to St.Louis.
Found Plaster Dust on the Chevelle. Double
I knew I wasn't dreamin....

Don't mess with old farts - age and treachery will always overcome youth and skill! Bullshit and brilliance only come with age and experience.

I felt it, fell back to sleep, forgot all about it until I heard it on the news this morning.

We were coming home from Chicago, and I thought the Trailblazer shook a little bit funny on Rte. 30 North of West Brooklyn. (Hard to really tell on that road.) We get home around 1:25 AM and hear on the scanner that there was an earthquake. The timeframe would have been about right.
