What a week here in Virginia. We had an earthquake of some measure. A couple of buildings in Culpeper damaged and condemned, lots of repair needed on others. Our neighbors reported dishes falling off shelves, pictures crashing. Some had siding come off their houses. Chimneys cracked. The strangest thing of all was our home had absolutely no damage. The only explanation for that is that the man who built this house said the foundation was built on a large slab of rock. Spooky.

Hurricane Irene is making her way up the coast tonight.
