The Incredible Images of Iceland Volcano from Just a Few Kilometers Away gives an idea of how a Icelandic volcano can cause such havoc in Europe. One of the photos shows a tiny helicopter next to the plume of smoke. Astronomy Picture of the Day – Ash and Lightning Above an Icelandic Volcano has another striking photo.

I went to the Rocky Mountain Dinosaur Resource Center in Woodland Park with a friend today. I could have spent a lot more time, if we hadn’t left dogs at home in crates. I was pleased that allowed photography inside, even with a flash in most areas. I loved this restoration, which looks more like modern art than a fossile.
