Thursday Morning Meh

I've got nuthin'.

Mt. Redoubt is a little quieter this morning; the mid- and low-level winds are blowing to the south/southwest, away from us. That's a good thing.

Governor Palin has declared the flooded areas to be a disaster zone; the ice floes include chunks larger than the houses they're dislodging. A number of villages are under water, and Eagle has practically been scoured by ice. Not good at all.

FYI, the flooding is in eastern Alaska, near the Canadian border. It's hundreds of miles northeast of Anchorage. We got rain showers yesterday and last night (yes!!!) which will make the dust obey itself, today.

That's it for this morning. Maybe something will come to me, later. Have a great day, friends.

Sometimes "nuthin" days are the best days! My sister and her husband won't be coming to Alaska after all. I told her about shooting tourists ( just kidding).

But we promise not to shoot 'em! Honest! Well, maybe just a little ... heh.
