This week we went from Canton, OH to Petaluma, CA then from LA to St. Louis. Then we were sent to Quincy,IL. When we arrived at the address where we were to pick up some freight here is what we saw! I found a phone there in the middle between the two holes and called our contact. She said just go ahead and drive into the tunnel about three blocks and there is a place to park the truck. Then come into the office. So, Sandra and I slowly drove into the right tunnel. Wow! It was dark and we had to turn on the headlights.
This is an active mine which goes several miles back into this mountain. Back inside there are businesses which have made warehouses in the mine. There are streets and parking lots. But it is a little spooky because there are no posts holding up the ceiling. Pillars are carved in the rock that are about 20-30 feet in diameter. The roads go around the pillars. I'll posts a few more pictures so you can get a little better feel of the place.
