Earth Moving

I've lived in Seattle for nearly four years now and I haven't experienced an earthquake yet...knock on wood...but this fall I will be moving to Missouri and I thought my danger of death by earthquake would be going down...but after today I'm not so sure.

From the Kansas City Star:

Yes, Kansas City, that was an earthquake this morning.

Area residents reported being shaken awake shortly after 4:30 a.m. by a rumbling sensation, which turned out to be tremors from a 5.2-magnitude quake centered in southeastern Illinois.

This is the first song on the best album from a female solo artist of the 1970's.

Spring Break In Wisconie

Thinking about it, I have never gone anywhere warm and sunny for Spring Break. I was hoping for maybe lower 60’s when I got off the plane in Minneapolis on Thursday…instead by the next morning I had this:

Next year chances are I will be living in Wisconsin, Kansas, or Missouri depending on how things pan out and so I’ve got a 66% chance of having a warmer Spring Break next year.
