Hi Jon,
I want to get a good clean display and will need another 12 hours and =
then
I'll put the cover back on. With you interest in volcanoes, have you =
ever
been to Hawaii and up to Volcanoes National Park and watched the =
eruptions.
They also have a nice earthquake research station there too. The lava is
usually flowing. A few years ago I was at the area with lava flowing and =
was
there before sunrise and before the ranger was there and was able to see
lava flow at my feet, really. It was all very safe.
