Recognize this beautiful mountain????ÿ ?????ÿ
Is that "Ol' Smokey"?
I lost my true lover for courting too slow
For courting's a pleasure and parting's a grief
For a thief will just rob you and take all you save
But a false hearted lover will lead you to the grave
And the grave will decay you and turn you to dust
They'll hug you and kiss you and tell you more lies
Than cross lines on a railroad or stars in the skies
So come all your maidens and listen to me
For the leaves they will wither and the roots they will die
You'll all be forsaken and never know why.

Was that St Helens before she blew her top?
The east side of Mt. Hood?
Yup!!! She was beautiful!!! Still is, but in a different way. ?????ÿ
I get the USGS Volcanoes updates and they do the "countdown" every year to when she first started rumbling, to May 18th. It's trippy to see Mother Nature at her feisteist!! ????
Has it really been 41 years??ÿ Dammmmm, I'm getting old.?ÿ Think of how old some of the local people are who were too young to remember what happened and have only heard stories.
Fits right in with making mention of the disappearance of Jimmy Hoffa.?ÿ That was nearly 46 years ago.
They claim Elvis died nearly 44 years ago.?ÿ "What's an elvis?"
I often think of that... The kids of today around here have no idea what it is like to have a volcano erupt in the Pacific Northwest. Not that I want one of them to erupt anytime soon!!!! But... they're all still beautiful, active volcanoes and we must respect them. ?????ÿ
