Mount Saint Helen and Glacier National Park

These places were amazing!!!

A few facts about Mt. St. Helen:

  1. When you see the videos of the Volcano explode a large gray cloud of dust and ashes is shown and you can see lightning in it. The lightning comes from the dust particles with so much static electricity and when they collide that causes the lightning.
  2. People near by could not hear the volcano erupt b/c the sound waves shot up into the upper atmosphere making only those far away hear it.
  3. It took only a few weeks for ashes and dust to completely circle the earth.
  4. In the visitors center there is a place where they talk about the water carving out new paths in the rock....the volcano erupted in 1980. They state that it only took a couple of weeks to do this. Is that not evidence that the earth is young and show evidence of a world wide flood.

After looking at both of these magnificent places it shows what a great creator and God we have and serve!!! Enjoy the pictures...





I decided later to add some random ones of Annika on our trip in a later post so stay tune.
