Earthquake

Last night around 7 pm while we comfortably eating a pasta dinner in front of the tv we felt this big shaking, which, when you live 6 miles from an active lava flow makes things a little more exciting. Here is a photo from the government site about our 4.2 magnitude quake. See the star, I live about a quarter inch (in map terms) north of the star, along the coast. The quake was really nothing dramatic, not like the quake last year where the epicenter was a hundred miles away on the Kona coast. That one was worthy of CNN coming to inspect the damage and I loved that people could send their photos to the news network.
