I was working in Pasco, east side of the state. Didn't know what went boom till it was on the news, but knew from past experience it whatever it was was huge. Flew over it about a month later, looked like a moonscape for miles.
Volcano dust - Yakima got it heavy, and some of the police got tired of cleaning out the air filters on their cars every few minutes, so left them off. That worked... for a few minutes. Some semi's tried making the run from Pasco to Spokane, news said none made it. Had K&N filters in my car and truck, 10 minute drive to work, cleaned the filters at least once a day. Bikes stayed in the garage till the roads cleared. That ash is murder on metal.

Yes. Short, medium, and long classes. It is pretty quiet in the summer though.
That is when we get most of our work done. I will be servicing like 50 tractors over the summer. I have 1 student that is staying behind for summer. The other 2 are doing internships elsewhere. I will hire one more just for the summer.
Looks like ROTC is getting ready for graduation.
