happy mount st. helens day

Where were you May 18th, 1980? Tell me!

I was standing outside the old chapel at Westminster Chapel in Bellevue, Washington watching Mount St. Helens erupt. Click the photo to read to your heart's content all about The Eruption that changed Washington forever.

So, I suppose in honor of MSHD, the Almost Mexico, AZ international airport has a current temperature reading of 104.4. Ugha.

Those were pre-Karisa days...I didn't show up until 2 years after the eruption...but I wonder if it's one of the reasons I have asthma... ;)

I was 5... I remember looking at a Time Magazine at the pictures after the fact. I also had an uncle in Washington State... I wondered if his house would blow up.
