Oh, I thought you had to be on or near a fault line to experience an earthquake. We were four miles from the epicenter, and I think it was a 2 something.
Thanks for posting those sites Erin, I'll look at them. Our DS and DIL live near LA, so they're used to quakes. He knew about this before we called because they have a website that notifies them of an earthquake anywhere in the world, and ours showed up on it!
I really think once in a lifetime is quite enough for me to experience something like this. Even though nothing was damaged, no objects moved or toppled over in the house, and Montana was awake but unconcerned--just curious when we got up and started walking around the house in the middle of the night, it was still scary. 
Things when through my mind when it happened, like maybe a car hit our house, or the fridge somehow fell over, or the hot water heater fell through the floor.
