I haven't commented in a while because life has been hectic. But I wanted to say I've been enjoying your April vlogs so much. A definite pick-me-up moment in my day 🙂

I have experienced 3 shakings of earthquuake on west coast of Canada. The scariest and was middle of night and we woke to what sounded like the growl of the earth, then the shaking. Never to be forgotten. We are now in Ontario and don't have them very often.

Glad you’re okay. I experienced the Loma Prieta earthquake in 1989 while I was in college, living in my dorm in SF on the 15th floor; it was a 6.9 . The most terrifying experience! The university had all the students sleeping on the cafeteria floor (a single story building) until they could get things figured out. Our dorm was deemed unsafe and was condemned. I wound up dropping all my but one of my classes and slept on a friend’s couch for the rest of the semester. My parents rented me an apartment off campus the next semester so that I could continue my studies. I remember coming home during break, my parent’s have a view of the bridges, and couldn’t believe the site of a section of the Bay Bridge that had collapsed. 63 people died from the Loma Prieta earthquake.

I was driving home from Modesto. I felt the car swerve, I thought I had a flat tire. I turned the radio on and heard there was an earthquake in SF. That was too scary, my husband was home with the kids, he said the house shook real hard.

Can’t even count all the earthquakes and after-shocks we’ve had here in Southern California (L.A.) over the years. Have also had significant ones, like the 6.7 Northridge earthquake in 1994, at 4:30am. Freeways, houses and apartment buildings destroyed. Absolutely terrifying because it was dark, we could hear glass and furniture moving and crashing down all over the house, and the quakes never seemed to end. Was before my own girls were born, but we had a friend’s three little girls staying with us. Glad you could turn yours into an educational experience for the kids.

My grandparents’ house had huge cracks from that earthquake! They lived in Canoga Park, right near the epicenter. I can’t imagine how freaky that must have been!

@debbiem6406 3 ай бұрын

Wow, your grandparents lived in the valley, in Canoga Park near the epicenter. We live over 23 miles away near Culver City and felt it hard. A lot of major damage as well. Truly terrifying with significant aftershocks the whole next day. We drove through the valley days later and couldn’t believe how many apartment buildings had collapsed straight down through the ground. One of our friends’ young daughters that were staying with us had argued with me the night before about wanting to sleep on our comfy living room couch. Thank God I said no because a tall, very heavy antique desk/book case with glass doors came crashing down on the couch, exactly where she would have been sleeping.

My friend’s daughter lives in NYC and is a nurse. She was taking care of a lady/patient when the earthquake happened. The patient asked Diane to quick hand her, her bible. The patient was sure the world was ending. I’m glad you are fine and glad you took the opportunity to talk with your children about earthquakes including biblically.

Yikes! Earthquakes are so scary. I remember living in CA & working in a fabric store in the 70’s when one hit. I remember looking up at the lights & they were swinging & the bolts of fabric were falling off the shelves. I was so young I just stood there & watched while all the older ladies were screaming & scrambling under tables. Ahh, youth…so blind! 🤪 Now I only have hurricanes to contend with 6 mos. out of every year in Houston. Both scare the dickens out of me! Harvey was no joke! 😢
