Re: [meteorite-list] Fw: Im home, fires

[Rosemary Hackney]

I am so sorry Michael ((hugs)).. I saw what it did to Yellowstone a few years ago... Reminds me of an old song... My grandfather's house was bulldozed under by coal miners... I am sorry my son you are too late in the asking.. Mr Peabody's coal train done hauled it away.  Muhlenburg County Ky was a disaster area when I was a child.  Bleak and nasty and looked like it had been burned over.  They were even digging up graveyards until Granddaddy put an injunction on him.  Anyway.. The hope is...that just like the land was reclaimed eventually.. one day.. perhaps Mother Nature will restore the beauty.  Today.. you cannot tell where the strip mining occurred.  But it is sad to see my Great Grandmother's house abandoned in the middle of a lonely field..   Anyway.. I guess I am rambling..   God Bless..   Rosie ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Farmer To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 26, 2002 1:36 AM Subject: [meteorite-list] Fw: Im home, fires Just to let everyone know, I have arrived back home tonight from Europe. The fires in Arizona are more devistating than anything i've ever seen, I only have what I saw on the news and internet, but I know the area and know what has burned, it is terrible, basically everything I knew as a kid is gone, most of the houses in Pinedale, my small town are gone, Heber was almost totally gutted. Many of my friends have lost homes, and my childhood home burned. I will try to get up there and see what is left. Mike Farmer More info on the shows in Europe tomorrow.
