That's sounds scary the one you had in Seattle with the waves in
the yard.
This was all very surreal. The walls were swaying like waves.
I really didn't know what to make of it. Not at all what I expected
an earthquake would be like. I was thinking the ground would rumble
and shake with vibrations but not this rolling waves stuff. This was
swaying like you said waves except the I didn't get out side to see
if the ground had waves in the grass. Actually it started with
a few dropping like crashes. My first thought was some movers
had dropped a refrigerator in the stairwell and it was shaking the
apartment. But then it happened a few more times. And that
is when the swaying started and the walls moving. I still thought
it must be movers and imaged they drove the moving van into
the outside wall damaging the building and that is why the walls
were swaying and the outside floor dipping. And then it intensified
again and I thought that's it I'm running out of here now!
This was below the threshold where it would get really scary.
It was more astonishment than anything else. I guess that would
have quickly given way to panic had things started collapsing and
the ground swaying. I can't imagine what a 6.8 magnitude and up
quake might be like. I've often thought I would not like to live
on the west coast. It would be rather hilarious if the east coast
instead of the west coast fell into the ocean. One thing is for
sure if nature gets carried away there isn't a lot you can do about
it unless you have a hot air balloon maybe.
I must confess I didn't think about my G&L in the closet. The
couple times we have had fire alarms go off I've thought about taking
the best guitars with me. Not this time. The thought never crossed
my mind. LOL.
