Montour #8: Update

To our GREAT delight, the borough has decided to shore up Montour #8; work should start in a couple of weeks, and take about 2 months altogether. We're told.

Turns out that Montour #8 has caused 5 mine subsidence incidents (I love this terminology; plan to use it whenever possible) in the last 4 years, so now we're going to pump it all full of something.

We would SO like to know what this is. Concrete? Silly Putty? Super Glue? Foam pellets?

Anyway -- maybe Bear's Retreat will make it through, without actually falling into Montour #8. Though if it did, definitely I could blog that.

Poetry a bit later this morning -- just wanted to Report On The State of the Big Hole Under Bear's Retreat. Cause I know you care.
