Sitting on top of a ridge with a friend as close as we could get in Battle Ground, watching Mount St. Helens, we were there all day, the next day my car was covered with ash and I found out a co-worker died.
As soon as we could, we flew around Mount St. Helens, I could not believe the damage done, it looked like another planet.
To this day, I’ve only been back twice to see how mother nature came back, it still makes me sad to go there.
