Here is a sample of the data extract for a mine exported to Blogger using DRC 2.0 and my new Blogger API feature. Still hope to have this free update ready by Oct 15 despite wrestling with a bout of swine flu!

I visited Tin Mountain Mine back in the mid 80s when I was attending college at SDSM&T. I miss the Black Hills especially in mid to late autumn.
