Friends of mine are considering a home in Marsh Bend, or maybe the new area of DeLuna, and are wondering if they’re felt over there. I spoke with a realtor who said he had clients who bought a really pricey house from him in Marsh Bend and said they don’t feel them. He said for the price they paid ‘if they felt them, trust me, they would let me know!’. But would rather hear directly from a resident than a realtor! Thank you!
About the blasts from the mine or quarry. We have been here in McClure since April 1, 2019. I'm not sure if any other area that this is being observed. The first blast really rocked hard and we sort of panicked as do most if unaware of the culprit. It happens every 4 weeks or so and many folks haven't heard or felt it as perhaps they simply weren't home at that particular time. We do feel it and it does rattle the house for a moment. No damage to our house yet. If there was any significant damages around the area, we would all have heard about it. Believe you me (as my mother always said)
