All I could wonder was what was going on…
There was no one home I was scared. So then I tried calling my mom but it just went to voice mail. She said on the voice mail though these words: “sorry I missed your calls were running away from the earthquake bye”.
I froze in shock what earthquake and how could they leave me. I then got into the suburban after I grabbed the keys off my dad’s dresser and drove very fast to the airport. But when I got there I was too late. The airplane had just taken off and I was stuck in Yakima all by myself.
The wind started blowing and the clouds started forming and I knew it was time. I drove back to my house and tried to find somewhere to be safe. Then there was a big boom type thing just over the mountains.
Mt. Saint Helens was exploding and the mountain was on fire. I couldn’t believe I was about to die or live. The ground started to shake so I jumped in the tub and hid there.
I heard crashing and glass shattering all around me. I didn’t really realize I was in the middle of it all until it hit me. Our big cherry tree hit the side of the house and almost gave me a heart attack. After five hours of siting or lying in a bath tub it stopped.
I pushed all the pieces of house of me and walked outside through an open hole where a door used to be. I stopped in shock to see fire and houses destroyed. And down the road was a big long slice where a yellow line used to be. To this day I remember the disaster I lived through as a young girl.
