What is Heritage Rough ‘n’ Tumble? It’s mind-body-spirit form of American Rough ‘n’ Tumble, which began as a manner of no-holds-barred fighting in the Southern Virginia backcountry during the Colonial Era and has since grown, evolved, and adapted to the realities of modern self-defense. An amalgam of the varying techniques brought to America by colonists from all over the world, blended with the fighting methods of the over 900 distinct indigenous tribes, American Rough ‘n’ Tumble is perhaps the world’s most fearsome martial art.

Apparently it was a 5.8 earthquake in D.C. that was felt all the way to Long Island NY.
Now we have an update from ABC news stating, “The quake was in Mineral, Va., in Louisa County.”

We were having a late lunch at our home in Morehead City, NC and the ground shook under us, the chandelier started swaying and the dishes in the china cabinet were rattling. Our local news told us it was an earthquake in Richmond. Luanne
Thanks Luanne, it was pretty scary here. Glad y’all are OK. I’m at the office, haven’t been home to check the house yet.
Here are the details from the U.S. Geological Survey:
