First an eathquake and now a hurricane?...


Our first stay out here on the east coast is turning out to be more interesting than we ever imagined.  Most of you may of heard of the 5.8 earthquake that hit Virgina on Tuesday and was also felt in Washington D.C. Well that earthquake was reported as being felt here in Connecticut and clear up into some parts of Canada. I was at home at the time and didn't feel it and Clint was at work and didn't feel it either. He must have been so focused on work because many of his coworkers around him felt it and saw some things move around them. Well that was the first interesting thing that happened this week. Now it is being reported that Hurricane Irena will mostly likely blow over Connecticut as well. We got an announcement from our apartment building today to get prepared and what we need to do so.  I didn't even know that we get hurricanes this far up.  Luckily Clint and I have our 72 hour kits set up, some water stocked up, and our candles/matches.  We are going out tonight to get more stocked up.  We will just have to see if this thing actually hits us. Keep you updated...
