I worked for USDA, back in early 70's; and with VDA, both agencies had us "attacking" Mole Hill in the rain for Gypsy Moths... NASTY BUGS, they are. Mole Hill is an extinct volcano... Coffee...? BTW, "Google" Earth Lights; SPOOK Lights & GHOST Lights... Shenandoah Valley, Va. has LOTS of 'em! HH!

Funny how we can live so close to something and not have a clue. I knew that we had an old volcano from something I read a few years ago but never knew where it was. I passed it the other day while driving and thought, "that looks like it could have been a volcano. " I googled pics just to verify...sure enough.
