In the news Sunday and today, are reports of a man trapped in an Idaho silver mine. The Lucky Friday Mine is owned by the The Hecla Mining Co., which claims to be one of the Nation's oldest precious metals mining companies. Back in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many new mining companies worked "Calumet" or "Hecla" into their corporate names to imply a connection to C&H. Let's hope that they find 53 year old Larry Marek alive and well.

Love those steel truss bridges, and the river pic is nice, 2.
