You live on a volcano?
I used to live at the bottom of one, and I sometimes go up there to visit. I love to ski on that volcano.

Mammoth Mountain is a lava dome complex in Mono County, California. It lies in the southwestern corner of the Long Valley Caldera[6] and consists of about 12 rhyodacite and dacite overlapping domes.[7] These domes formed in a long series of eruptions from 110,000 to 57,000 years ago, building a volcano that reaches 11,059 feet (3,371 m) in elevation.[8] During this time, massive dacite eruptions occurred roughly every 5000 years.[9]The volcano is still active with minor eruptions, the largest of which was a minor phreatic (steam) eruption 700 years ago.[3]

These are the earthquakes that have happened yesterday and so far today. It's actually been a quiet couple of days.

There were a couple of people that fell into a vent on the mountain a few years ago. A couple more people tried to rescue them and died.

There are natural hot springs in the area and that area smells of sulphur. Nasty.
