Here is an e-mail I received from Dan who lives in Alaska.
Chris, Saturday was a beautiful. Blue skies, cloudless, sunny day. Even warm. In the 40's. About 3:45 PM I walked out front of the medical clinic to view the current status of Mt. Redoubt to see that it had just erupted 10 minutes earlier. We are located 35 miles directly east of the mountain. The winds were blowing northeast. The ash cloud billowed up to a modest 35,000 feet this time. Its been erupting the last several weeks. Has previously been to 50 to 60,000 ft.
Within a half hour, the ash clouds reached our location here in Soldotna. We were on the south edge of the clouds and had relatively no ash fall out here. The ash fall out in Anchorage, northeast of our location was described by some to be like a solar eclipse. Sunny this morning. Had several inches of spring snow fall last night. Night time dipping down to the upper 20's. Day time in the 30 and 40's. The snow and ice of winter are fading and the day light hours are certainly longer each day. The rivers ice is starting to break up and we'll be fishing soon.

Hey Dad! It's Reagan!!!
Dogwood is 40,000. And I will never forget Frodo and the love he gave me when I was sick and even though I would be mean to him, he would always come up and sleep next to me...
We are thinking of moving to CO. to retire in a year/or 2. We do not know contact person in CO to give us ideas of where to live, churches etc. Can you help with that. I listen to you show on my break when I get the chance. I heard your toxic dilemma etc. Wondering if you could sympathize with our concerns and put me in contact with a church or persons who could give me info about CO., and stay away from toxic areas.
thanks
maggie
Maggie,
I have been told that once we left Colorado, all the toxins in the state were eradicated! Be glad to help, but Colorado is a big state. Do you want to live in the flatlands, the front range, the mountains? Do you want to be near a big city or by yourself on 100 acres? Email me at chrisfabry@comcast.net.
