Description:
Video begins with scenes of green hills, mountains and wildflowers. Next video cuts to men in a dark room, one is holding a video camera. More rainy day footage out in green hills appears, then piles of rocks or dirt and piles of coal and rainbows. Then video cuts to unnamed mining town footage and rundown buildings. Next appears video footage of black and white photos, containing images of miners, mining operations, mine camps and mining towns. The videographer holds up old black and white photos of towns and landscapes in front of the camera and then removes the photo slowly to show how the area looks in present day, 1970s.
