There is a lot of mining going on in Carbon County but they are using more machinery and fewer people. We still have family members that are part of it. Federal Laws and Unions have given them a safer job with a better life and a pension if they live long enough. The people have learned to tolerate and enjoy each other. They are no longer separated by racial or ethnic groups like they were in those days. The diversity of its people makes Carbon County a most enjoyable place to go. It's also getting harder to find a good family restaurant serving ethnic food.
