Limestone Quarry

Back Home Up Next

Just north of Kentucky Lake I saw this huge cloud rising up from the rock quarry.  It puzzed me what could be making such a huge cloud of dust.  Then I remembered back to my strip mine days in eastern KY when we would blast away the mountain top to get down to the coal seam.  I think that is what caused this limestone dust cloud.  It looked very similar.
