Hi Ruben,

All okay here near Oakland. I had some empty wine bottles fall off the fridge and a couple pictures fall over. That sure was a looooong quake! Not very bad tho (I was in San Jose for the '89 shaker, so not bad compared to that one). I ran into my snake room and held onto the tall glass cage I have my adult ATB in, that one is not very sturdy but luckily it didn't fall over. My cat just sat there and purred away sitting in my freshly done laundry, so much for animals being able to predict earthquakes! lol I'm going to get some wall anchors and strapping to secure my cages to the wall just in case for next time. The Hayward fault has a big one every 140 years or so and we are coming up on 130 years.

My dad is in San Jose near where it hit, he just said the drawers on filing cabinets fell open and some pictures went crooked, no damage there either.

Hope everyone else was okay too!
