Last year Lulu and I spent the Saturday in Durham - north of London. It was the center of the coal industry. You may remember the saying - like carrying coal to New Castle. Well New Castle is just up the tracks.
We are not going to the parade today - but our old Tamaqua friends - Jan and Dicky Davis will be there. We hope to see them next week here. Maybe I can get Jan to write up a story about this year's parade.
Dicky and his dad Tommy Davis - were undertakers in Tamaqua PA. They buried many miners with lungs full of coal dust.
