5.1 Earthquake hits Guam

This afternoon about 3:30 pm Guam was hit by a 5.1 earthquake. Curt came running outside, I was picking up the lights from our Halloween celebration, and said "Did you feel our first earthquake?" I evidently did not. The kids were at the mall with friends and when they came home, they validated Curt's claim. I told him he was full of s***. I guess I was the one that was full of s***. Here is the link to our local internet paper.

Check out the reply to the blog. Guam has a proposition on the ballot for legalized gambling, and this island has voted against it several years now.

An earthquake!!?? I didn't know Guam was prone to them. And you were outside and didn't feel anything?? Tell those kids of yours to answer their emails...Aunt Rita needs to stay informed! See you next week!

So sorry...I forgot to say HI Curtis, sounds kinda cool and kinda scarey feeling the earth move, anything in the house break? What are you up to in Guam to stay out of trouble? Wanted to say HI to HUNTER, too!! I do miss him and our long walks, how is he doing? I keep debating whether to get a dog or not, but now that I'm back working 12hrs I don't know if its a good idea...
Anyway, talk to you all soon, love and miss you!

OMG and earthquake!! I don't know Meg, between the earthquake and the NO GAMBLING...I am having a hard time with this. How come you did not feel anything? Is everything OK? Tell Justing he looked great playing the trombone. Is Curt getting any jobs substituting? Everything here is fine. I will try to call the kids before they go to school on Monday.
I love you all and miss you all.
