We were visiting family in Louisiana and had to fly back to L.A. Our home in Baldwin Hills sustained some damage to the foundation and the master bedroom.
I lived in Northridge ( Porter Ranch) during that earthquake. I was only 5, but I remember it like it was yesterday. The aftershocks were really weird. We’d be sitting there and all of a sudden the walls looked like they were made of rubber. We saw a huge orange glow from the gas line that exploded on Balboa Blvd. Outside there was smoke and water gushing from everywhere.
