As we sleep tonight...

How cool is this?

This whole story about the Chilean miners who have been underground for 2 months, surviving, maintaining, working until they could, hopefully, get rescued.  And it's all happening tonight, as we sleep.

What a great thing.

So many people, coming together to help these men and to get them out, get them back on regular ground and they're all coming out tonight. 

I've been following this story a bit closely because it's so fascinating and because it's unique and because it  seems it's been handled so well.  So organized.  So proper.

33 men.  33 miiners, working underground.  Trapped in a mineshaft and a collapse. 

And coming out tonight.

Check this out:  the mine they're in and that they've been in for 69 days is about 90 degrees.  As they get out above, it's approximately 59 degrees. 

There would be so many things they'd have to adjust to and to prepare for.  So many changes.

I can't think of anything to say but God bless 'em.
