And your feet are shaking cause the earth is shaking
An earthquake Here!
A 6.0 centered in the Gulf of Mexico, which we felt here in our living room.

mactavish, I knew that I could report it here.
We felt the shaking, looked at each other and said "Nah, it can't be an earthquake." I went to the USGS website to see if it was, and Cayne went to the front window to see if there was anything like a truck that might have made the rumble. The first time I checked, the USGS website didn't have it up yet, but when I refreshed shortly after, it was there, and we filled out the form.
What I said to Cayne is that the earthquakes I've felt feel more like side to side shaking whereas trucks or trains feel like up and down shaking.
