WOW - I'm sitting here watching the rescue of the miners at the San Jose Mine in Chile. What a wonderful happening to witness. My heart goes out the all the miners and their families. I was so glad they found them alive and am so thankful that they are being rescued. God bless them all. It is so emotional.

I can't even begin to imagine what they have gone through. I can only imagine what a heart wrenching experience it was for them and their loved ones. And what an uplifting sight to behold now that they are being rescued. I am so glad we can watch it live. What a celebration of life. They have 3 up so far.

It brought tears to my eyes, and gave me goosebumps when the first two men were rescued. After all they have been through they look so good. The second miner brought up gifts for the rescuers and his wife.
