Here's to Mt. Redoubt

I know, this picture doesn't do justice, it's just one i found online but I was so excited that i actaully saw the volcano yesturday erupting!  I didn't think that you could see it from Anchorage, but apparently you can.  I was driving dimond blvd yesturday and you could see the Ak range really well.  I looked at the end of it and there was a mountain that seemed to be by itself and it had a big white cloud that mushroomed around the top of it.  I thought to myself, could it be?  na....... then that was that.  That night i was watching the news and sure enough, apparently it ws really big today that everyone could see the volcano erupting from anchorage.   and the image they showed was exactly what i saw, which is kind of like the photo above, that one is just alittle closer.    I think they said it's just steam coming out now, no more ash.  Let's hope.
