Before noontime today, we had sizable earthquake said to be 5.4 in Chino Hills which is about 40 miles from us and closer to Hector's mom and sisters. The kids and I were in the kitchen when we felt shaking which kept going on for about 10 seconds. We weren't scared but sat there like idiots. The water in the goldfish bowl was sloshing around and the light fixtures were swinging. Everything looks fine...our neighbor's walled fortress didn't come crashing down on our car so that's good although I'm sure the cracks already there will get bigger.
The news has been reporting the damage which is fairly minor like stuff falling off the shelves in stores etc. I'm sure they come up with more and hopefully there were no deaths or injuries.
Hector can now use the joke that our friend "fill-in-the-blank" fell out of bed and caused the earthquake.
