Hearing about that volcano makes me look to our two active, but long dormant volcanoes. Mt. Shasta and Mt. Lassen. I think it was around 1915 when Lassen last blew.

Maybe that's what is triggering all this activity. Interesting times for sure. Maybe it's the lack of sun spots too??<br /><br />At least we are smart enough now to not fly planes into ash clouds.

This may end up being the year with the most major earthquakes and we haven't even started hurricaine season yet. When Earth decides to let go there is not much we can do but get out of her way.<br /><br />Plus maybe she is a little pissed off for some reason, hope it is nothing major, or look out things are going to be flying everywhere.<br /><br />But the scientists who are trying to calm us down is just saying that Earth is just trying to release some pressure at the different fault lines and it happens whenever and where ever it is needed. Living a few miles from the San Andreas fault line makes us wonder if we will be next or if we will be spared. Will it be in Northern CA or Southern CA, or both. Only God and Earth know. We will only find out if they decide to tell us. Nature is a very moody female and so must be treated gently. <br /><br />Remember it is not nice to upset Mother Nature!!!!<br /><br />I need a walk and some sleep.<br /><br />God bless.<br /><br />PS....Did you read my comment on the previous post about "Grandpa's" sleeping advice and the possible reposting?Mrsupolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563854387767106508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2607471777855707790.post-5380145346127210132010-04-16T11:18:16.643-04:002010-04-16T11:18:16.643-04:00I'm with Dan.
