Relax...it was bedrock being blasted as the site work is being done for the (guessing) new tennis courts to be located below the LCA softball field. Got it taped and on youtube, if anyone is interested. It picks up about 40-50 seconds in:

Yup...just a little. They had the road and area blocked off. Thus...I was guessing and it was with a phone.
The warning put on the Splash page made it sound like the ground would quake and folks would hear and feel it in CN. It was obviously nothing that cool.

My friend told me his professor told their class there was going to be an explosion around 1230 in that area. He said it was for the tunnel going under the train tracks. So we drove around on that back road for 5 minutes looking for a closed area that would explode. Found nothing, because we didn't know it was over by the softball fields.
