I made it out of the coal mine with no bumps, no bruises and no panic attacks so I'm tuff enuff---not tough enough to be an underground miner though. It was quite an experience and it made me very, very, very thankful that most every day I see the sun at least for a few minutes and that where I work is well lit and I don't have to have a headlamp except when on fires at night. Even then I can meander around and see where my feet are going and can see my hand in front of my face without the light.
I learned yesterday that 50% of the electricity in Utah is generated using coal from that mine. Pretty big number and makes you think how closely we are all tied to those TUFF miners that are extracting the coal. Give a little Thanks to them for your power this THANKSGIVING DAY. Have a good one.

Sorry I won't be able to come home this year. Maybe you can have one more year of peace.
If I wanted to go in a mine, they would have to drug me first. I'm with you, I get claustrophobic in places like that. I got stuck in a dress once when I was trying it on at the store. It took alot of mental discipline not to rip the thing to shreds to get it off. lol
