Great news everyone!!!

I just got off the phone with Bill Liptok from the Court House and he informed me that we could tour both the coal units in operation either in the winter or in the spring. He did state depending what the temperature is, the boiler maybe off line in the spring, but we can still tour it, but it is more interesting in operation.

Well, shall we opt for a mid-winter meet or hold out till the spring. I would love to see the "beasts" in action myself.

Also, we can set up the use for the movie threatre at the Fairlane Mall when we set up the date(s).

Have a great weekend!

Dan
