Dang! That was a close call. Good thing you all got out of it in one piece.
I was watching the evening news. Funny thing was that, moments before the 5.1 hit, the anchor lady was talking about a couple of smaller quakes that took place during the day. The bigger one came from the same area as the small ones, too.
We're sure having a "rockin'" weekend here in SoCal, aren't we?
HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm predicting that for the next few days we're gonna get a bunch of "Are You Prepared for the Next Quake?" segments on the local news channels.
That's good. The last one we had here was a 6.something, centred about 50km away and I nearly shit myself - we were walking home from taking Ada to the local school playground, we were just between a couple of buidlings next to the front carpark and I heard it coming, like a train. Everything started moving really bad so we grabbed Ada and ran in to the open. Thankfully no damage for us either, just a broken photo frame which is replaceable. They sure give you a fright, makes you appreciate how strong mother nature is.

Yeah, it was a bit scary. Haven't felt anything that strong in years. No damage here, though, so that's good.

Heard about that, hopefully it wasn't too scary for anyone!
