An earthquake in our Coach

Scott & Heather · August 23, 2011, 11:54:07 AM

Definitely bus-related since we were in our coach when it hit. 5.9 Mag...hit us in PA with minor force, but still shook the coach enough to make us think our air bags had failed or a jack had slipped. Our first three weeks living in a coach...and we experience our first earthquake in it.

Just got an update on it. 5.8 scale, depth of 3.7 miles, location 87 miles southwest of Washington DC.

Hi Folks:

It was fun.

Knew immediately what it was as the floor and walls moved and all 6 overhead metal doors sang a song.

We all gingerly moved outside not knowing what to expect next.

Fortunately, nothing so we came back in to work.

Happy & SAFE!!! Bussin' to All.

If it was in DC it is probably China digging their way through to get their money.

Too bad it didn't crack open and swallow up all the politicians.

hmm......... is God upset with Washington? Nah...... that wasnt a "real" earthquake! You people should feel one of the good ones we get in Cally

Though Im sure your buildings back there arent built for earthquakes......

Yeah, when the "big one" happens since we are just west of the San Andreas fault, we'll have ocean front property on our island off the coast of California. So, I have some property for sale that will really increase in value when "it" happens!

Hey, for us mid-westerners, this was freakish. You californi's can have your quakes...we'll stick to our tornados and snowstorms

Without politicians who would you complain about?
And who would we blame our troubles on?
