Earthquake

I was on the Caribbean Sea kayaking this morning, and suddenly found myself bobbing up and down on a series of large swells. I wondered where they were coming from. They were too big to have been caused by the jetskis that had recently gone by. 

It turns out we had an earthquake! It was magnitude 4.6, epicenter 10 miles south of Guánica. That's a common life experience when you live near the edge of a tectonic plate. 

But isn't the natural world incredible?
