But it did little to shake up indoor tanning stores. \u201cThere was one girl in the salon at the time, and she works for me,\u201d Bob Sigman, owner of Salon de Sol in Palmyra, Va., told Smart Tan. \u201cShe said she saw the chandelier start moving and she got out of the way. Other than that, not too exciting.\u201d The earthquake - centered in Virginia - hit 5.8 on the Richter scale, producing tremors as far north as New York and as far west as Chicago. News reports showed people fleeing buildings, not sure what to expect, as well as grocery store aisles cluttered with fallen product. But tanning went on without much interruption. Salon de Sol is located 25 miles southeast from the epicenter and Sigman says there was no structural damage done to his or any other buildings near the salon. He lived in California for a few years, so he had felt earthquake tremors before and said this was mild in comparison. \u201cIt probably lasted 15 to 30 seconds,\u201d says Sigmon. \u201cIt\u2019s like a train coming down the tracks; it builds in intensity. It starts slow, you don\u2019t really feel it happening. Then it really gets into it, and then it\u2019s done.\u201d Most of the damage was done close to the epicenter \u2013 the towns of Mineral and Louisa Va. \u2013 but it has made for some interesting conversations throughout the day, Sigmon said. \u201cIt\u2019s all anyone is talking about around here.\u201d","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/smarttan.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/shutterstock_596491241.jpg"}
