7.1 is pretty big, how long did it last? i still remember our northridge quake in 1994, lived about 10 miles from the epicenter and our block wall collapsed... we had about $100K worth of damage to our house. hope u and ur family are ok.
Lot of damage, I know what that feels like, been in few myself, San Francisco 89" was 7.1 and Northridge quake in 1994, it was 6.7. Thanks for sharing all those pictures.

WOW! I cant lie going thru a quake is the scariest thing for me to have to deal with. Thats like the only thing that holds me from visiting my mom in Cali!
Wow thats horrible! I hope noone was really hurt.

Yea, I'm okay, I live a bit further away from the epicenter of the quake, but it still hit pretty hard here too.
We were lucky that it was so early in the morning, otherwise there would have been far more injuries and deaths. So far only one report of someone dying has come through, it was from a heart attack brought on by the quake.

Did the Galant survive?
Lol, yea, I heard a crash in the garage during the second shock and though it fell off the axle stands, but it was just a set of rims falling over.
We were very, very lucky. Our house is fine and only one thing fell over, which was a book case, we still had water and power just after the quake, many did not.

glad to hear it wasn't too bad for you and your family.
That silver WRX took serious beating. I wonder where the next big earthquake would strike next? I've experienced one in Japan this shit ain't no joke!
We're still expecting a 6.0 Aftershock sometime this week as well.....
There have been lots of little tremors coming through, but they could continue for up to a week as well.
