We had a 5.1 here in West Tennessee last week. I'm about 100 miles from the New Madrid fault line. :0

Glad you're okay . Kinda makes me miss sweet ole' So CA (I'm from Yucaipa - near Redlands, San Bernardino and Riverside). We lived right over the fault line (what were my parents thinkin' when they built the house there?!?) . I never really experienced a BIG quake (Thank God! Our house had HUGE sliding glass doors everywhere! :0 ) but the small ones where kind of fun sometimes :thumbs: (the little yappy dogs running in circles - I HATE yappy little dogs :angry: - sorry, all you yappy little dog lovers :laugh: !) but they could also be quite annoying as well (the earthquakes NOT the yappy little dogs - we have already established that point . Anyway, hope all is well now. Preembargo says, "Hang in there!"

They were thinking "beach front property" when the big one hits and SoCal slides off into the Pacific. :laugh:

That's an understatement. My first trip to CA I was visiting my mother in Newhall and woke up to the Northridge quake. One of the freakiest things I have ever experienced. Gave me a whole new perspective on the word terror.

Northridge was a 6.7. My "weenie" 'bout crawled up inside me.

Yeah it was a small one. A nice roller.

I've been through two large quakes: Whittier Narrows (M5.8) which did a lot of damage in my area, as we sit on top of that fault. It was an up and down shaker, and not a roller. The other quake was the Northridge quake measuring a M6.7. This one was more of a roller, felt like I was surfing.

I'm hoping if we have more earthquakes it will help to push down the outrageous real estate prices. Keep these people from moving to So Cal...
