I used to live in the SF Bay area when I was 5 years old. In 1989 I remember the Loma Prieta earthquake.

We lived a suburb of SF called Walnut Creek. I remember hiding under the table with my mom and siblings after the ground shook. My dad was at work and wasn't with us. I remember watching the news after and seeing one of the cars fall into the cracked bay bridge.

I remember my mom trying to cheer us up by saying the car was going to be ok and the driver would be fine. I remember seeing news footage of an amusement park in the area and the carousel ride's horses all damaged.
