Just look at that eternally serene, peaceful, quiet sister of Mt. Fuji! 😂

P.S. I remember the fateful morning when the shockwave of the eruption hit my house, 150 miles away. I thought someone was dynamiting stumps at a nearby farm. Windows rattling and walls shaking. Then the chaos from the cursed ash fall. 😬

We went up to Council Crest in Portland to watch the plume and then left town for the coast to escape the ash.

And then the ash went the other direction (first eruption— NE towards Yakima). 😉

I was swimming on the Columbia River on the Washington side for the second eruption and saw the plume.
