Big enough to rock the house, but not as big as last time, which spilled a bunch of my bullets from the shelf. It sure is a trick to get them all back in the right boxes.

Not sure if you have a basement or not, but have you ever been below ground level when one hits?

We had one her a few years ago. I was in my basement and it was the creepiest feeling. I have been above ground for them before also and never got that type of reaction from one.

It was like a weird case of vertigo that just kept coming in waves. I ran upstairs not knowing what was happening. As soon as I got above ground the weirdness quit, but I could still feel the ground quivering.

I hope all is well up there.

I've been through a bunch of smaller ones but nothing like the ones y'all get out west.

I'd like to experience an earthquake sometime. Not a huge destructive one, but one big enough to make things shake. I imagine it's kind of a beat experience, as long as things don't get trashed.

Only time I ever felt one I was it 3rd floor of an elevated beach house. People outside never felt it. People inside all felt their houses rock.

Experienced an earthquake in Alaska 5 years ago. I was surprised how much the trees shook and swayed. Glad no damage to your house and no one got hurt.

My coalmining buddies don't care for it. The last good one we had here a couple of them was taking a break in a safe, supported area where they mechanic and eat. They had all the machines near them shut off and could hear good. They heard a rumbling sound and thought it must be a cave-in a couple miles away , then the rumbling got louder and louder and still didn't understand what it was. Once they started shaking then they knew it was an earth quake. Any of them that had never prayed before quickly acquired an act for it.
