Hi. We are Russell and Dane from Birch Meadow School, Reading MA. We are fourth graders studying volcanoes. Have you ever taken a bath in lava ashes? If so, could you tell us about it and what it was like. Thank you.

Dear Russell and Dane,

I have not had the opportunity to take a bath in lava ashes. I have washed my hands with "LAVA", a bar of soap that contains volcanic ash. The ash is abrasive and helps to scrub the dirt away.
