Glad to hear you and yours are ok.
Went through a pretty good one when I was a site commander in Greece. Thought someone was at the foot of my bed shaking it to wake me up, but no one was there. Lots of ceiling tiles came down and stuff fell off shelves. Biggest problem was that the concrete base for some very large communications antenna was badly cracked. Had to bring in the Civil Engineers to repair.

The way we've seen the construction, your house should be fairly stout.
Tectonic activity scares the livin' s**t outta me. One reason we're not in California. We live on Jello here, the hurricane thing is somewhat more predictable. The shakes aren't so much a concern.

I was recovering from my cancer adventure (and retinal detachment, and cyst removal, and ... and ...) and was at the air museum doing some research. My swivel chair began to move and I got vertigo; I figured I was having a stroke. (Like, what's next ...).
Then I noticed the wings of our big VS-44 on display were slowly moving up and down. All the planes in the hangar seemed to be flapping their wings. Totally weird.
That was the 5.8 that hit down near Washington DC in 2011. Felt all the way up to Maine.
