Up here in Kamuela on the Big Island it was really messy. .
Just finished cleaning up the house after the kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms puked their contents out into the house. Shelves collapsed, I watched a propane tank jump in the air and concrete footing flip over. My house moved about an inch on its foundation piers..Thankfully I was outside with the dog when it happened. Wife and baby not far behind me..
The whole house was flexing and shaking back and forth. I watched my lawn do the "wave" as the quake and aftershocks hit. We just had another aftershock about 5 minutes ago. All day long with that...
Ugh..
Hope everyone is ok..
That was NUTS.

I was sitting on my bed, scratching my head. "My bed is shaking but I don't think i'm doing it?" Then it got 2x worse. So I was just being thrown around clueless. LOL
I regret not looking outside to see what it looked like.. shucks, I missed my very first earthquake..
Hope everyone is ok.

Dude, when the 6.6 earthquake took affect, I was sleeping in my bed..But the aftershock woke me up and thought about the movie, "The Exorcist"!!!
