Ridgecrest.Good thing it was mostly in the middle of nowhere. That could've been bad if closer to L.A.
Latin? People here barely know English. And I’m not talking about immigrantsI think that's inscribed in Latin on the Bakersfield city seal
Good to hear. I mean about everyone being safe. Not the part about having to live in Ridgecrest.Happened near my wife's hometown in Ridgecrest. Lot of broken glass but family is safe.
My dad is alone in his home in Irvine. Really hope no more. He can only walk slow with a cane or he falls (he's post stroke).Multiple aftershocks. I'd post a few pics of broken roads and burning homes from town if I could on here. Saying there could possibly be a stronger one later.
Wow. That's a long ways from the epicenter.My dad is alone in his home in Irvine. Really hope no more. He can only walk slow with a cane or he falls (he's post stroke).
Hey now. You may recall I am in lovely Ridgecrest. I was cooking sides for the 4th bbq when it hit. It was some roller but no real damage here. A toilet popped out of the bathroom floor. The damage is... i dunno. Not terrible. A friend with a great car collection lost his house. Maybe another couple dozen max... all to fire. Anyway, I spent the day helping clean up our Albertson's where a couple family members work.Good to hear. I mean about everyone being safe. Not the part about having to live in Ridgecrest.
Glad to hear you came out OK. Sucks for your friend.Hey now. You may recall I am in lovely Ridgecrest. I was cooking sides for the 4th bbq when it hit. It was some roller but no real damage here.

Thanks. I was in Northridge for that one too. This one just dumped the content of the shelves on the floor. I had pickle duty. Same with Walmart and the other groceries. Half the town has had a power out since it hit. My side of town, closest to the epicenter never lost power, internet for 30 minutes. I had a pretty good laugh at Ridgecrest tweakers (a very specific breed) turned looters. There's too many people in a panic and thinking the end is nigh. The base commander ordered an evacuation, so did the hospital. I am taking bets there will NOT be anther 6 or above. We had a dozen around 4 - 4.5.Glad to hear you came out OK. Sucks for your friend.
How bad was Albertsons hit? A lot of Refreshe soda and Snack Artists chips destroyed?

23ABC posted a bunch of photos on Facebook from the Stater Bros and Walmart...including jars of pickles on the floor.boom another aftershock. haha. you can watch them here. almost 100 lil quakes today.
You're kidding me? Didn't know there were any Ridgecrest people on here. Was out last year. Be out again next year.Hey now. You may recall I am in lovely Ridgecrest.

it's nothing to joke about.You're kidding me? Didn't know there were any Ridgecrest people on here. Was out last year. Be out again next year.
I haven’t felt any others since the big one.it is an odd sensation... you feel that in Bakersfield, buddy?
The big one was 9 miles from my place. There's maps of the aftershocks for any who care. The group closest to town are within two miles of my house. Seven 3.8-4.0 quakes and minimal damage. A mirror fell. Toilet came off the floor. Neighbor's pool drained unexpectedly. Crazy how this would have wrecked LA and here? A few house fires. A couple poorly built homes are totaled. Pickles everywhere.I haven’t felt any others since the big one.
Damn, dude. I think after the 20 or 30th one I’d get out of Dodge. Come down here to God’s Country. If you hurry you can catch the festivities at River Walk Park. Mento Buru is playing (all 17 members probably).The big one was 9 miles from my place. There's maps of the aftershocks for any who care. The group closest to town are within two miles of my house.

My daughter is home from UCLA for the summer. She has a box of Nevada grade fireworks, but more importantly four of her friends are here tonight and off to Vegas tomorrow. The pool hasn't looked so good in years. I cook. Wild horses couldn't drag me away.... and booooommmm another aftershock as I type. hahaDamn, dude.

I guess they don’t do the big show up at B.C. any more. Probably one too many stabbings in the parking lot.
Whoa, Nicole was in town and I missed it. There is little "whoa" damage. I buy gas and lotto tickets at Eastridge. I know everyone in that vid. The kids doing the play at the HS is pretty intense, I guess, but no one was hurt and it was over fast. I drove around town after midnight and you would never know we had a major quake. Sleepy, quiet, we good.
Yup..lasted long enough to walk outside and see power lines shake.JFC JUST A HAD A BIG SH AKE HERE
