We got some great pictures of it before it decided to leave (if it ever did).

Yellowstone had plenty of elk all over the place - but Flagstaff had the biggest! I do not know if we would want to go to Yellowstone again since the super volcano is showing some signs of life. Perhaps Elk County would be 'safer'.
Wow.... I bet you have some awesome stories to tell....

Fisheye, do you believe there is truth to what they're saying about that super volcano?
I watched a special about it on TV, once. It was about how they found out it was a volcano...how they found so many different levels of dirt, and how that discovery bloomed into one of the biggest volcano findings on earth. Matter of fact, they hinted that, maybe that is what caused the extinction of prehistoric animals?

I don't know; you decide: Earthquake Swarm at Yellowstone Supervolcano Now One of the Longest Ever Recorded.


I found this one Flagstaff picture I took back in 2001:



The picture makes him look much smaller than he was in real life!

When I took that picture it was about 105 degrees outside. If you look at the grass it is very brown. Many states, when we took that trip, were having problems with fires - although not as bad as this year.

Like I said before; fire is our one Achilles' heel. I am glad that our weather has shifted towards a wetter weather pattern as our leaves come off our trees.

Many of the experts on Yellowstone are saying that the earthquakes do not signal an imminent eruption. But, I don't know, if they know what signs to really look for.

The thoughts of a volcano that huge is just unfathomable and scary I hope they're all wrong brings to mind that I had heard that Japan had another earthquake what about a week or two ago and I just wonder if those missiles that Kim was setting off into the ocean had maybe Disturbed the tectonic plates and caused that earthquake?

I don't think Kim has anything to do with the Japanese earthquakes. However, it is possible; that Kim damaged his own nuclear test site: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/north-k...-mount-paektu/. Of course that is only speculation from our 'experts'.

Have you ever used Google 'Earth' to fly over NK? It is interesting. There is the bridge to nowhere on their western border and a nuclear (looking) facility outside their capitol city. Nighttime pictures of the country taken from space are also interesting - no lights (compared to the other nations in the region). They are operating on a different wavelength than the rest of the world!

Here is the stark difference between NK and the rest of humanity: New Space Station Photos Show North Korea at Night, Cloaked in Darkness.

With their leader we make fun of him as the fat man; but he is the only fat man in NK! Everybody else looks like they are starving to death! Perhaps his people just took that Jenny Craig plan too far? Maybe, with the problems we have in America with obesity; Kim can give us some pointers?

That is an incredibly privileged and ignorant statement. People in North Korea are being starved, imprisoned, beaten, brainwashed, and exterminated by Kim's autocratic government.


It's one thing for you to say you don't like the guy who got elected, but it's offensive to compare the U.S. to North Korea.
