Update #1
Relief. So far.I heard from R.Jay again this afternoon. Among the frantic of getting a mine rescue team ready for this mine fire, some important information was skewed. The mine they are going to is not near Pennyslvania, it is near Ithaca, NY. It is called Cargyle (or something to the sort of that spelling). There are no men trapped, praise the Lord. The mine fire is still raging. According to MSHA (which probably sounds familiar to those who've watched the latest mine tragedies lately) there has to be at least 3 mine rescue teams on site before an attempt to put out the fire is made.
My honey gets to come home tonight. He has to report to Gouverneur Talc at 4:00am sharp to depart for this Cargyle mine. His team is still to report at 7:00am tomorrow morning at that mine and will be an emergency standby team. If something goes wrong, they go in.
So good news, but we're still not out of the danger zone. Mine fires can be nasty, to those in the mine and those putting out the fire. Please keep praying. Thank you for all you've done so far.
Louissa and Jackie have made me too a "follower"... be kind.
