I was watching TV in Pasco, WA. I was 7 years old. We lived right next to the highway, and just thought it was a car crash. Then it got dark. As a 7 year old it was great no school the next 2 days. Still have a 5 gallon bucket in my parents shed full of ash.

Wierd thing is I was on the Lewis in the upper river tonight and prfctdrift and I heard the same explosion at somewhere around 5:30 or so... We thought maybe it was the mountain too. But to know you heard it that far away can't be a coincidence....

LOL! Nope...I believe it was one of Whidbey's finest doing some advertising for the Mach speeds..:-)
Never saw anything in the papers about an explosion, or demolition on Hwy. 20, so that's about all that's left.
I'm sure they chewed the pilot's arse...they aren't allowed to go over Mach .9 when over land.

On May 18, 1980 my dog woke me up a little after 8:00 am in my Cherry Crest bedroom. I didn't think anything of it until I turned on the Mariner game a couple of hours later and thus saw it on tv. By mid afternoon it had become a beautifully clear and calm day. When people talk of "earthquake weather" I think of that day. We all walked to the bottom of the hill to where Sky-Guy was as this provided the best view. Sure enough, clear as day, just behind Mt Rainier was a mountain blowing up! I watched a couple of more eruptions from that same spot and even got "ashed," on Anderson Island one morning. This was all pretty exciting for a 14 year old. Even now I'm sort of rooting for her to BLOW big time  . Sorry Toutle fans.

That damn thing popped off daily for 10 plus years and nobody cared. Now it burps a little steam and its national news. Go figure!
My dad and I were getting ready to go down to the 108 bridge on the cowlitz to go fishing, because he wound up not working that day, he was a log truck driver for Champion and the yarder broke. Its the one everyone in the world saw all burned up in the blowdown. Spooky stuff
