I can assure you the Old Timer made it back unscathed…

Well, I'm sure there was a little fondling here and there...

No 7-Elevens around here, but good to know if I see one while traveling.

Yeah...that pouch freaks me out View attachment 2321944

You should be safe with this pouch brother

Thank you. New knife releases are fun and exciting, but nothing compares to carrying and using a 100+ year old pocketknife.

I think there is. 1 that is gifted to you that's extra special.

I've got my newest old knife all sharpened up and ready to carry:

Corliss Cutlery (1900-1910)

Nice find Rachel, that's a beauty

In Texas, I'm a Yankee.

Haha!
My family is from Pennsylvania, and Texans call anything to the north and east "yankee".
It's funny that Yankee really means Connecticut, but the farther you are from there, the bigger the region is, until all Americans were called "yanks". That probably didn't sit well with boys from Dixie.

I was watching a YT video, which covered that very subject, just yesterday

I remember when I learned the term "carpetbagger".

No?!!

My wife thinks people from Dallas are Yankees!

Here the North-South divide is reversed

Nice pair buddy !

Thanks Steve

I woke up today with no plans but within about 10 minutes I decided to drive down to Mount St Helens. I first saw it 31 years ago and was completely blown away(no pun intended) by the utter devastation and the amazing landscape. It was like drawing a line where the lush green forest stopped and lunar landscape began. I try to get down there a couple times a year but don’t think I made it last year.

I had a couple errands to do while leaving town, hitting NAPA for some 2 amp fuses and the post office. At the post office I ran into an old timer that had recently moved here from the East coast. He had never seen Mount St Helens so I offered to take him along, to which he happily went. Weather was almost perfect today with just a little haze from some small fires. Some good scenery was coming up once we broke out of the timber.

The third photo has Mt Adam’s in the distance. One of the first things you come up to is the “Miner’s car”, a 1972 Pontiac that was destroyed in the blast. I’m pretty sure the old timer may have ridden in a similar vintage car or three, if not an identical Pontiac.View attachment 2324332

Not too far up the road you run into Spirit lake. It’s amazing that the trees that were ripped out of the hillside by the blast, avalanche and water coming out of the lake are still floating after 43 years. I took along a Swiss Army knife so thought a photo op was called for.View attachment 2324333View attachment 2324334View attachment 2324335

We didn’t have to go much father when you finally see the mountain. The old timer was speechless. I eventually got him to pose with my SAK…View attachment 2324336

I figured the Old timer would like a picture next to the Miner’s car, so one more stop on the way out.

Thanks for sharing your adventure. What a cataclysmic event. I just can't imagine the power of that eruption.
