Maybe 5 or 6 times in the 65 years I have lived here. We have had more serious earthquakes then that...

I think I would rather have the snow. We live rather close to the New Madrid fault zone, but not so close that we have actually experienced any quakes.

One afternoon, I was sitting here at the computer, and there was one that was only between 3-4. It was over so quick, I didn’t even realize what it was. I thought it was a plane or helicopter flying very low at first-but it was over too quick for that, and the ceiling tiles of the drop ceiling fluttered a bit.

I didn’t know about the New Madrid zone until we had put down roots, or I would have stayed on the other side of the state. LOL
