Does anybody on this forum own a pet?  I have a dog and my sister has a cat.  Which is very unfortunate considering that my dog and my sister's cat get into fights whenever they get within six inches of each other. And my sister's cat always wins.  One time I went to feed my dog and I noticed a cat claw sticking out of his snout.  Poor little guy, anywho, here's a photo of my pet, Rusty.

Are there kids that constantly bring up how bad The Land Before Time is or something? O.o

I'm not too sure.  But I'm pretty sure I can feel it in the atmosphere of my extremley hectic high school.

Correct!   I'm from Montana, well known for its urban legend surrounding cowboys.  Montana is also well known for Paleontologist Jack Horner and his discovery at Egg Mountain.  Bozeman MT is home to the famous Museum of the Rockies.  When I lived in Bozeman I used to go there for at least six hours.  I loved it there.  But now I'm in an isolated little town in between Livingston and Billings where the wind blows every single day.  The weather up here is also very unpredictable.  Five years ago, it snowed two feet in June.  Power lines snapped and trees branches broke under the weight.  :blink: But Montana is also a very beautiful place in the summer time.  Very hot and humid.  But the winter storms from Canada bring the Temprature down to -15 degrees farenheit just like that.  But Montana is full of geological beauty.  Like this photo I took of the Crazy mountains.

This is the second photo with a shadow applied to Sierra

I have one question about the volcanoes you saw. Was there any obsidian (Obsidian is a black stone which seems like black glass and chips into sharp edges)?

Yes, if your talking glass then you must be talking about the cooled down lava right?  I heard from the rangers that you have to wear closed shoes whereever you hike.  You have to be extremly carful around the Puu oo (poo oo oh oh) vent, which has been active since 1983, there are a lot of places where you can trip and cut yourself.  Here's a picture of Puu oo I took earlier that morning from a small plane.  One way to start off a New Year.  

It's cold over here. But we haven't had any snow on the ground since Christmas.  And other parts of the state have at least six inches of snow on the ground.  And the only snow we've had just dusted the surface.  But it HAS been very cold and gusty here. In this part of my state the winds can get up to extremly fast speeds.  A few weeks ago the wind was blowing as 87 miles an hour!!  Two tractor trailers and one RV blew over that day.  Not much snow up here, but a lot of extremly gusty winds.

All of the horror movies that I've seen don't freak me out at all.  Its as if something has burned the fear right out of me.  But there is only one thing that scares me the most, and it's not a movie.  It's a game.  You guessed it, Doom 3. But there is one Scifi Horror movie that I nearly got the hee-bee-jee-bees from and that was Alien.  The part where Captain Dallas gets killed.  That made me jump.  But the best "Scifi" horror movie I've seen would probably be 28 Days Later.  One of the best "Horror" horror movies I've seen would probably be The Ring.

I'm quite a traveler, I've been to Australia twice and Costa Rica once.  I've also been to Los Angeles, New York City, Denver and Washington DC.

Thanks, I also have another pic with Sierra and Rinkus from LBT 7, the background is inside the Thurston Lava Tube at Volcanoes National Park.  This one isn't so good.  If you look carfully you can see the exit and a few tourists and I don't think I cut out Sierra and Rinkus too well.

What do you think of this little picture I made?  I used screenshots from LBT 3 and Microsoft Picture It to cut out the raptors from the shots.  The background is a photo I took inside Kiluea Iki crater at Volcaonoes National Park when I visited Hawaii during Christmas Break.
