24 Years Ago

I get almost as excited about the anniversary of the eruption of Mt. St. Helens as I do about my birthday.

I mean, it was just so freaking amazing. I'm a bit in the mood to go back to my hometown and dig around in the topsoil and find the ashen layers deep down in the dirt. It made the best mud ever.

I'm cool with Mt. Rainier holding onto its top, though, 'k?

Me too -- one major volcanic eruption in my lifetime is quite enough, thank-you-very-much!

I think I still have ash in my lungs...
