We had some ceiling tiles that came loose in the main lobby of the museum.

That puppy scared this ol' boy. Sittn' at my computer, the screen started to shake, then the whole house started shaking and rumbling. I headed out doors, where my neighbors were doing the same thing. I had a bunch of pictures that ended up crooked, a knick knack that came off of its stand, but I think that was just about it. I am going to do a thorough walk around later today to assess any damage.

We have 1 neighbor that had to clean up some glass items that fell off of her shelves. We had another neighbor that ended up calling the fire company for a propane leak....never did figure out where the gas was coming from. They are going to check that out further.

We are 30 miles from the epicenter in Mineral, Va. I felt an aftershock about 8p last nite. There were several other aftershocks reported, but I didn't feel any of those.

That is my 1st, and hopefully only earthquake experience.

That's a big RV! Is the Museum marque from Forest River?
