Hi, I'm Alyssa and I live in Clarks Summit. We're surronded by mountains, and in the winter, there's almost always a lot of snow (I say almost because there wasn't a lot this year). It's a very small town, and most people have probably never heard of it. There are coal mines up here, but I don't think any of them are used.

Coal Mines? Do people like explore it?

Well where I live they have the Lackawanna Coal Mine Tour where they actually take you down in a coal mine & you can learn about the miners and stuff

That's so Cool! Do they leave coal in there for decoration? Do they let you take coal?

Well there's chunks of coal in there, but you're not SUPPOSED to take it (Who cares though? I took a peice). But there's a gift shop & you can buy peices of coal there

*laughs* How much are they?

Ummm... I want To say like $3, but I'm not sure....it comes in packets

How hot are your heat waves?

It can get to like 97 degrees I think. Last summer was really hot thought, so I just moved to the basement

Hehe *giggle.* How do the mountains look?

Awesome. You can tell the seasons just by looking at them. In the spring it's green, fall they're golden, and winter, it looks dead.

And that's why I'm glad I moved from texas. It used to get that hot there.

Ha. We enjoy it here. Your summers are as cold as our winters.

Then you guys are crazy!...or cold blooded

"You make me sad."

Aww, sorry! I just hate the heat.

Well you could say that.
