I had just built a new wooden fence in Edmonds WA when I heard someone smash into the fence.
But I could not spot them, looking over the fence.
A few minutes later I heard them smash into my fence again, and again I could not spot them.
Later I learned those sounds were Mt St Helens blowing up.
I had 5 acres in Snohomish that got 0.1" of ash on the leaves of the trees.
Some guy at work gave me a jar of ash from Yakima. The plume around me in Western WA was small, but it went big to the East.
The wife bought face masks, but we never needed them in Western WA.
