If the Earthquake wasn’t enough excitement for you, there is always Hurricane Irene who stands a good chance of coming in to our lives. So while we are on guard for aftershock tremors, we can prepare for the hurricane.
It looks like it is getting harder to dodge the hurricane bullet. What will you do to prepare? Any good tips for those of us who live inland?
This seems like a lot shorter shake than I got at my house.

The timing in the above video was just too good to be true. Did he fall or was he under the chair on purpose?
Moving to the epicenter:
I have a very dear friend who teaches at Louisa County High School. I thought it was near Mineral. Little did I know that it was in Mineral. I decided to call John to see if he was OK. He answered and I said,
” John, are you dead?” He roared and said “not yet.” He said not only was he at the epicenter of the earthquake, but the principal and superintendant of schools were in his classroom, welcoming everyone back, when the earthquake hit.
They evacuated the building and all sat outside. He made it all sound very exciting. He is a little close to the Lake Anna Nuclear plant. He said they have weekly drills over there. I guess we dodged the bullet on that one.
Mineral had quite a bit of damage as did Culpeper, according to TV and newspapers.
