That would be great, Dej, but they have a law here that says you can't shoot any type of weapon or anything within the city limits. So, the deer are taking over. No garden is safe unless you have it surrounded by a 15' fence with razor wire on top!

Here's a link from the US Geological Survey. Quake info. by state:

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.
You can feel an earthquake anywhere on the planet. (except for when you're flying in an airplane)

I'm not so worried about a big earthquake happening here in Nebraska, even tho I've felt the little ones occasionally. I'm more worried about the super-volcano in Yellowstone National Park. If the super-volcano in Yellowstone decides to blow it's top, it'll put a nice big hole in the middle of the country. Omaha will probably get scraped off the map by the blast.

The Yellowstone volcano usually pops off about once every 600 thousand years. It's been 600 and forty thousand years since the last eruption. It's overdue.

I want to take a trip to Yellowstone someday. It's too expensive of a trip for me tho.
