Trapped miners in Utah



I am sure that you might have seen on the news the 6 miners who are trapped in a mine here in Utah. We have been watching very closly at our house. Not because we know anyone in the mine but because Teds been keeping a close eye on the footage on the news because the company drilling the holes is the company Ted works for. He is watching the rigs and employees with "safety" in mind. He is watching for all the precautions they need to continue maintaining even though it is a rescue mission. Ted hasn't needed to be at the location yet. Another employee has taken that resposibility. But of course if something happens to any of his employees he will need to go there. So anyway I just thought these pictures of the big rig were cool and also the video they sent down the hole to see if they could see the miners. The news has been pretty interesting on this story including the irritable owner of the mine. We hope that these miners are found soon, and pray that they are safe and can return to their waiting families.
