It seems just like yesterday,

but did you know that on this date, way back in 1980, Mount St. Helen's erupted?

Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument

It was a Sunday morning in 1980, and it erupted at 8:32 a.m. I note it here because of its historical significance, but also because it seems just like yesterday to me. I can't believe that 31 years have gone by since the event.
