re: #30 sizzzzlerz

A favorite pastime is searching for old photographs of people and places of whom I’ve known of or been to just to actually see how they used to be. I ran across this photo, taken in 1915 from Red Bluff, CA showing the eruption of Mt. Lassen. Just one year later, Lassen National Park was created. While dormant now, Lassen is still considered a potential threat.

I love Lassen. We went there a few times when I was a kid (1960s) and we’ve gone nearly every year for the last 30 years. It is amazing how much things have changed over the years. It’s interesting to see how trees have grown back in the “devastated area” compared to the ’60s.
