Did you feel the ‘quake, Kathy?

I am glad this will not affect your area. :^)

[yorkie]

I would move to TN in a heartbeat, if I could!

[eyedigress]

What is your trade or expertise?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Long, long ways away...way out at the end of the Aleutian chain. Nothing felt here.

[Cindy]

Good...smiling at you.

That’s fairly far from Fairbanks. Didn’t notice anything. Trucks hitting cracks in the road above have a stronger effect here.

Hi Kathy! I logged off last night so I didn’t see your post until this morning. I see you had an earthquake about 15 minutes ago, 70 miles WSW of Anchorage, but it’s listed as unknown magnitude. Probably just a small one.

The Andreanof and Fox Islands are sure rumbling though. Typical for that area.

Have a great weekend! chena

I cannot find, anywhere in this rag of a newspaper, word one about an earthquake in the Andreanofs. I don’t get the rag, but there is nothing online that I can find.

OK....going to the breakroom for ice, I found a paper. On A-7 of only 8 pages, down in the corner, is the same blub that is posted upthread.

Nothing felt here at all this morning.
