Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Living across the Columbia at the time ..I was never that curious. Generally, wishing there was more distance between ‘us’ and that volcano.

Yup, my ol’ backyard.. We’d get stoned at the base of Multnomah Falls, then hike to ‘the bridge’ ..and get stoneder -- maybe even hike to the top - all well past midnight. And yes, the Columbia is magnificent; I miss the PNW ~
