    I thought something had banged into building . I jumped up from my couch but couldn’t see anything.

    Quite a jolt in granthams Landing, bc. Big -like a tree falling or an explosion, followed by shaking.
    Only knocked over a container of chopsticks and a mini book-which is strange as there are so many vulnerable things! Seemed real deep.
