Kellogg Idaho

Kellogg isn’t the kind of place you would expect to make national news.

It was 80 degrees and I said my blessings.

Along the streets there are sculptures of giants, knights battling dragons, train engines and a little Red Baron in his plane.

Spaceships in Wallace and dog-shaped bed and breakfasts in Cottonwood come to mind.

There are many new tools available for mining but the effort remains dark, wet, dirty and sometimes deadly.
