Will It Happen?

Ramble Obyn Ken ra Herre

Created on March 1, 1872, President Ulysses Grant signed S.392 into law, creating the first national park- Yellowstone.

the ashfall extending to the east coast. Parts of Texas could receive as much as 1.811 inches of ash!

Home to a large variety of elk, bear, wolves and other wild game, along with half of the worlds geysers including Old Faithful in Wyoming, the beauty of this national park is indeed a sight to behold. Is there however, a hidden danger that lurks beneath this majestic wonder of the world?

If you’re wondering if there is any evidence that Yellowstone will erupt soon, the answer is no.

Yellowstone is behaving as it has for the past 140 years. Odds are very high that Yellowstone will be eruption-free for the coming centuries.

According to scientists, the Yellowstone super volcano has had three major eruptions with the first being 2.1 million years ago. The second occurred 1.3 million

years ago, and the third and last major eruption was 640,000 years ago that created the current caldera.

What would happen if Yellowstone were to erupt in the future? If

the eruption follows its predecessors, then the lava flow wouldn’t travel beyond the parks boundaries, according to the USGS. The problem would be the ash released by the blast. The fallout

would include short-term destruction of Midwest agriculture. Rivers and streams would be clogged with thick gray muck measuring nearly 40” in depth 321 miles away in Salt Lake City, Utah with

So, go ahead and plan your summer vacation.

Take the scenic route to the mountains of Wyoming and breathe in the fresh air and partake in the beauty of Yellowstone National Park but don’t try to pet any buffalo!

Ready for a fun Romantic Comedy?

From SONY PICTURES and available on HULU come’s ALL ABOUT YOU. “Starring Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell, Anyone But You was the highest-grossing R-rated rom-com since 2016’s Bridget Jones’s Baby and the highest-grossing live-action Shakespeare adaptation of all time. The film follows two former rivals (played by Sweeney and Powell) who hate each other but must pretend to be a couple at a destination wedding in Australia. Inevitably, sparks start to fly between them. The classic enemies-tolovers movie dropped to Netflix on April 23.

PLUS for the young and the young at heart, don’t forget KNUCKLES on PARAMOUNT. “A hilarious, action-packed adventure, Knuckles centers around the red hedgehog, Knuckles, from the beloved Sonic the Hedgehog video games. Idris Elba voices Knuckles, who agrees to train Wade Whipple (Happy Endings’ Adam Pally) in the ways of an Echidna warrior. Things quickly get out of hand as forces try to steal Knuckles’ power.

The six-episode miniseries premiered on Paramount+ April 26.”

No matter what your looking for there are a bunch of great New and Not So New Movies and series to watch that are NOW STREAMING !
