Day Seventy

Today we headed off to the ledgendary Captain's Flat, to commemerate the 50th anniversary of the closing of the Mine. My Pop once worked in the Mine there, many years ago with his brother's and friend's. It was an interesting lesson into the history of the area and my family. My Pop read a poem he had written about the Mine at a small service that was held. We saw this pretty bridge and stream flowing at the front of someone's property as we drove past and thought it looked beautiful, I could imagine small children playing in it as their Mothers made their dinner and waited for their husbands to walk home from the Mine.
