Quarry

So here's a fact some may not know... but Chad and I live pretty close to a quarry.

What does that have to do with anything you may ask? Well... if you're not home during the day on a weekday, not a heck of a lot.

But when you are home during the day on a weekday an interesting thing happens. You see, once a day they blast in the quarry... which mean our house will shake for a couple a seconds. It's always a bit shocking b/c it happens at different times of the day. (even if it did happen at the same time every day I would not remember...)

It doesn't affect our house... I mean we don't come home and find things shaken off the shelves or anything... it's just a shocking event that happens once a day...

Today's blast was bigger and lasted longer than normal, so that's interesting...
