I wonder how many Old-timers had Bootleg Mines in their Basements ?

And if the Prison had Seismic Equipment Installed under the Prison Wall :unhappysmiley:

May be an Old Tunnel or 2 along here :coffee2:

I am not surprised. There's coal everywhere you look up there. When I was up there in February, I explored an abandoned something or other outside of Ashland. The entire mountain was coal, every bit of it. I came home covered head to toe in coal dust, lol!
 

Yep from North Pine grove to Scranton & Probably Farther it's Mainly Hard Coal Lands,
