I live in Pennsylvania, as most people know, we're blessed because we typically do not have earthquakes. Most of us had no idea what was going on as when we felt the trembling that day. I'm not even sure we had any damage in the immediate area, but it was still scary! I can only imagine how you felt or how others feel who deal with such tragedies on a regular basis. Glad you're o.k.

And quite the earthquake too.<br />One hit Eureka, CA when we were living there a couple years ago (a 6.5 i think), but we were in Trinidad and Tobago. I was looking through the local paper there and saw a picture of our local health food store in the 'world' section and it got pretty trashed. I freaked out cause one of my cats was being boarded nearby..anyway, everything was fine and only one of our plates broke which is pretty crazy. Another one hit Eureka soon after, like 2 afters I left - i keep missing 'em! :) (kind of anti-climatic, heh)Johnny Nutcasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08429848435564779353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940543402918132920.post-28252473398856550672011-10-16T18:19:51.300-05:002011-10-16T18:19:51.300-05:00Wow that is am amazingly powerful earthquake.

My first Quake was the big (6.8 on the Richter scale) Northridge Quake of 1994. I was in Las Vegas with friends and staying on the 14th floor of the Excalibur Hotel when the quake struck at 4:30 am. We thought someone was trying to get into our room and was pushing & pulling on the doorknob. By the time we were fully awake the hotel speaker system informed us that all was safe and live in Vegas seemed to go on as if nothing happened after that. <br /><br />I'm hoping I get no more opportunity to experience any more earthquakes!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00448330747379918094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940543402918132920.post-30768813471306052122011-10-16T05:46:16.619-05:002011-10-16T05:46:16.619-05:00Beautiful shot, I love the mountain scene and the ...Beautiful shot, I love the mountain scene and the beautiful sky. I was at work recently when Baltimore felt its biggest earthquake. It felt like the building was swaying, very scary. Luckily nothing bad happened, they are checking all the memorials in Wash, DC for structure damage.eileeninmdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00070309645796725309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940543402918132920.post-58371611761954399062011-10-15T22:18:09.620-05:002011-10-15T22:18:09.620-05:00was in LA for the loma Prieta quake..

Flew medical supplies up to San Fran... it was a war zone type atmosphere... and then living in the bay area of California for a number of years, it was not uncommon to feel small rolling quakes... very unique feeling..

Staying in California in a hotel my bed started to shake back and forth for what seemed like a VERY long time. It was a 5.7 - and scared me silly!Kerri Farleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07617128767655910810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7940543402918132920.post-64814701266461101042011-10-15T14:32:25.119-05:002011-10-15T14:32:25.119-05:00The strongest earthquake I've ever experienced...The strongest earthquake I've ever experienced was a 3 in the New York area, it felt like a train going by.
