I was at my mother's house...introducing her and my fiance that weekend. We watched it on the news. It just didn't seem real.

they called the last one pretty well, hopefully they didn't use up all their luck with that one.This for you non locals........the news this morning reported that there has been over 400 small earthquakes in and around Mt. St.Helens since March 14th of this year. Experts say not to worry, the mountain is just rebuilding it's magma under the mountain. They do not expect any eruptions soon............
I'm filled with confidence.....

They were small.....but it still makes my sphincter pucker......... JKthey called the last one pretty well, hopefully they didn't use up all their luck with that one.
How small were they? In certain times Mammoth Lakes can get hundreds of small quakes in a few days.
"Scientists said the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network detected more than 130 earthquakes, between 1.2 and 4 miles deep, in the region since March 13. Researchers said the majority of the quakes have registered as a magnitude 0.5 or less and some are too small to detect."They were small.....but it still makes my sphincter pucker.........
Now that is really cool ! I hope that you don't teach grammar...... What grade do you teach??I did too. I photocopied them and handed them out to my students. NOTHING is more educationally grabbing than a first hand, personal account with names and stories. No one cares if its from a book, but if you "know a guy", suddenly they all want to read it.
Ya Hoo. Love the attitude!!!! Can I send you some ash to show the crew????10th grade Biology. Volcanoes are an important part of nutrient recycling.
I don't teach grammar, spelling and I sure as hell don't teach art. Anyone making fun of my drawings on the board gets an automatic "F". Or at least that is what I say when they start picking on me. They are allowed to come up and correct my spelling/ hand writing after I walk away from the board.
That link is a great ! Thanks Brian.Here's one of several photos posted on a local news web site:
I was fortunate to be living ~100 miles north when she blew. I can only imagine what it was like to be downwind.
