Mutherfucker, i filled a small jar full of ash by brushing it carefully off my swingset.

1400 miles from the mountain.

We didn't need Weekly Reader to convince us that volcanoes were no joke. That shit came down on us fuckin' five states away. And not yer teeny East Coast states neither. Colorado Utah Idaho Oregon Washington. I'll bet that jar is still around somewhere. I know I got a photo album with little gray pieces of Scotch tape in it...
