Ash has fallen. Mt. Redoubt has been spewing over this last week. We have heard, followed, read, & looked at lots of pictures….but hadn’t really seen anything to make it “real” to us. Tonight is the first the ash is over us. Very strange. At 8:30 I saw online that the volcano had blown again. Out my living room window everything looked normal, out my bedroom window I could see the end of the driveway was dark. I went over to mom & dad’s and could see the ash cloud above, unfortunately I didn’t know how to get good photos at night with no lights on. The first photo just shows the weird sky…but the second photo the flash is reflecting off all the bits of ash in the air, that is not dirt on my lens :). It was so sparkly & pretty when the flash was lit up, it was like someone had thrown a handful of glitter in the air & it was floating, then you can’t see it at all! The next pictures all the flecks were in a different place. Amazing!!!


I took the pictures at 9:15pm, by 9:30 it was too dark outside to see anything more. Poor CJ has slept thru it all, Vince heard me & got up to see it for himself.
