April fooliness continues

April fooliness continues.  I know it is already a week into April, but the weather is still March like.  We are having another bout of wet snow glop.  The view out our window towards the south looks like real bad TV reception (in the analog days of rabbit years).  Colder than normal continues.

Supposedly the blue bloom of nuclear particles (see earlier report) is overhead today but it is all white, winter like.

TerraDaily reports that the US Geological Survey wants to monitor a volcano near Bend in Eastern Oregon.  It reports


"We're doing this on Newberry because it's a potentially active volcano," John Ewert at the Cascades Volcano Observatory in Vancouver, Wash., said.

"And as far as volcanoes go, it's one that, were it to reactivate, we'd be pretty concerned about because there are substantial numbers of people and infrastructure nearby."  http://www.terradaily.com/reports/Oregon_volcano_to_be_monitored_999.html

Keeping the fires going, enjoying the beautiful views, and glad the power is still on.
