When I go to work I make sure I park at the top of the parking garage facing Vesuvius. I can see the Bay of Naples, Capri, Sorrento, and Mt. Vesuvius. Once in a while a wisp of steam can be seen coming from the top, but usually a person has to look in the crater to see the steam. A tree grows in the bottom of the crater. It has been 72 years since it erupted.
One of these days I’ll make a page with pictures of Vesuvius, and pictures taken from Vesuvius. But, today I’m just posting this link. There are some interesting facts and videos about its eruption. One of the videos is from World War II and it shows the eruption and up close footage as the lava takes down building after building. Lava fields from that up close footage can be seen from where I park.
It is a beautiful mountain and I can see why humans have been drawn to it for thousands of years. I think another hike is in order before the end of the year.

Most of us first heard of the Clintons when they began their race to the White House. In 1992 they gave their first interview to 60 Minutes and she let everyone see a little of the darkness inside her heart. When Hillary said, “I’m not sitting here some little woman standing by my man like Tammy Wynette,” she let us know she was different. Hillary didn’t just sit next to “her man,” Hillary began destroying women who had anything to do with “her man.”
