Baltimore Earthquake...Where Were You?

Baltimore Earthquake...Where Were You?  

An email from my best friend  this afternoon said:

"Hope you weren't shaken up too much by that earthquake!.....

    

...Guess you don't have to wonder what to blog about today!"

My reply...You got that right.

It was a beautiful August day, low humidity, bright blue sky, a breeze blowing and it was 1:50 PM.  Lee was getting out of the back seat of the car for a 2:00 appointment at Franklin Square hospital. The bouncing was much more than usual…when I looked back, he was already out of the car but the bouncing continued…more like a bucking motion. I thought it was some kind of engine problem.  But then I looked up and saw the hospital’s fixed curved roof awning moving with the same force!

                                                       

That’s when the words,  ‘Oh Spit',  came out of my mouth along with, "We are having an earthquake!"

Within moments the hospital doors opened and people started pouring out..looking around with fear and concern. Almost everyone, including me, was trying to use the cell phone. There was no reception...no calls could go through. Immediately turned the radio on and heard that we had been hit with a 5.9 Quake!
