Cinque Terre

The Cinque Terre village of Vernazza ... Italy's Fiat-free riviera. Our home base was in the village of Monterosso, seen along the coast in the distance.

There she blows!

Soon after January 28, the day I arrived home from the hospital, the U.S. Geological Survey started issuing alerts that Mt. Redoubt may be ready to erupt. Mt. Redoubt is about 100 miles southwest of Anchorage. Well, last weekend it finally erupted and deposited ash north and west of Anchorage...that was until today.

The latest eruption around 3:30 pm deposited ash in the Anchorage Bowl area.

The fresh snow we received over the last three days is now covered with with ash...a strange gray hue covers everything.
