Sarah finally convinced me to let her get a new car. We spent a couple of nights browsing used car lots, but she’d already had her heart set on the Toyota Matrix because she likes how it looks and it gets really good ratings from Consumer Reports.

So there I was at home, reading a book while Audrey slept and Sarah was at work, when it hit. The big one — an earth-shattering quake! Actually, it was only 2.5 on the Richter scale and lasted only 4 or 5 seconds, tops. While it was happening, I wondered if it was wind blowing… Continue reading The “Big One” hits the Salt Lake Valley
