PING: Scott W

Did you get any damage from the quake?

Re: PING: Scott W

It seems every time I'm in Shinjuku or Tokyo that I stay on the highest
floors of hotels and there's always a "small" earthquake that amplifies
the movement the higher up you are... it is very unsettling. I'm glad
to have experienced it, but wouldn't want to experience anthing capable
of cracking walls... earthquakes here (Laurentian valley) are almost fun
novelties in comparison.
Cheers,
Alan

Glad nobody was injured and that damage was light.

Just back from helping my daughter and family shift into a new home, so
missed the news. Pleased to hear you're ok, Scott - from New Zealand,
aka The Shaky Isles as the Aussies like to call us. It's been a while
since we had a decent shake, though predictions are that some areas are
overdue for a major.
Another daughter who lives in Hong Kong said they had a reasonable shake
recently, most unusual for HK. They were 20 floors up in their
apartment building, and weren't too happy there for a while.

Thanks for the images Scott. Glad to hear that
you and your family came through this event
with minimum damage.
All of the Mainland is watching and praying.

Getting even isn't good enough.

Re: PING: Scott W

So glad to hear you're alright Scott. Have to admit you guys are
tough......living through earth tremors like that as a regular part of
living. I'm uneasy when a heavy 18 wheeler goes by my house shaking
the place up! lol. I heard it was a 6.6 on the scale. =:^0
You take care and be careful of all that glass.
Best wishes,
Helen

Thanks for the pix, and it certainly brings back memories of SF in
1989... esp. groups of people standing outside and talking.
Glad you are fine, min. damage to your home, and are grabbing the camera
as well.

It looks pretty bad from here. Hopefully that's the end of it.
Best to you and your neighbors.

We get a lot of earthquakes here, but mostly in the 3-4 range. This one
started like anyother earthquake we have had, but just kept getting
bigger and bigger and bigger.
We are still getting aftershocks but this are more like what we are use
to so no big deal.

There are no news crews on this island and so even we are not getting
images. They have asked everone to stay off the roads if you can so we
have just been hanging out at home.
Tomorrow I am going to go out and see if I can get some photos of
damage.
We don't have tall building here so I don't think there was a lot of
damage.
Here are a few photos showing some of the damage in the neighborhood,
mostly it was roofs that got most of the damage. One of the photos
shows our rock wall, which came through in good shape, just lost a
couple of rocks. Some rock walls in the Kona area came all the way
down.

We had a ton of broken glass all over the floor.
As far as I can tell we only have one rook tile that is busted. We
have a lot of cracks in the walls and broken tiles in the bathrooms.
Over all we came out pretty good.

Glad you made it through without too much damage. Now go check and
make sure your insurance is up to date. I see a new EOS1DsMKII in your
future. Or at least a 5D to replace the 20D that "fell off the counter."
