Valles Mines, Missouri, U S A
Founded in 1749 by Francois Valle in the French Upper Louisiana before Lewis and Clark. 275 years later the Valle Mining Company's 4000+ acre property every year absorbs 21,000 tons of carbon dioxide and generates
14,000 tons of oxygen, enough to meet the needs of 63,000 people. [USDA Forest Facts]

Ronnie Skiles RIP. [shown: Pumping the 1.5 million gallons of water out of the flooded back yard next door when the tenants trash dumped so much trash over tthe mouth of the drainage pipe under the MRBT railroad right-of-way. It took 3 days of two 3.5" trash pumps running 24 hrs/day to drain it. Ronnie kept them going.
Phyllis RIP. When we began to unearth the Rozier House Ruins she volunteered to cut and burn brush in her last days before succumbing to cancer.
