In ranch country open carry is more common because of snakes and predatory
critters that get after the livestock. And while open carry is legal in
many urban areas it may get you busted for "disturbing the peqce" or ...

I spent my grade school years in a small coal mining town with a lot of
first and second generation immigrants. They were from the UK and Central
Europe mostly. One of the kids I ran with had no vowels in nhis surname -
'Drnjvc' (pronounced Durn-a-vitch. Bv)=
I dunno what makes this especially "Coal Miners" but that's the title and
it's on topic as well as beinf a "Burton". Bv)=
