I love the brick building with the green "trim" - I love details like that on old buildings. Too funny that Evil was in for reckless driving :-) Bill and I went to school in a mining town so we'll have to make a stop here to see all the history they've restored. Some of our "less than pretty" campgrounds have yielded the best areas to explore :-))))))Jodee Gravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02247098923871155546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6063294538383205513.post-41724360749017398922015-10-04T01:40:26.470-07:002015-10-04T01:40:26.470-07:00Boy, I'm really showing my age here.

They mentioned something about the mining in Butte, and how every so often a random collapse would occur. That same thing happened in Negaunee, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Whole sections of the town had to be abandoned as the mines collapsed.

Butte is one day going to just collapse. It isn't called the armpit of Montana for nothing. But you really need to be there on St. Patrick's Day. That place knows how to party.Jim and Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16108729200561576870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6063294538383205513.post-29219999680302232382015-10-03T05:36:12.555-07:002015-10-03T05:36:12.555-07:00Butte looks like a really neat town.
