The bay area gets all it's power from Xcel Energy in Ashland. You never think about it until you see the big ship going outbound after leaving a load of coal at the power plant. It takes alot of coal to generate all that power we use to keep warm all winter. I'm guessing they have to build up a supply as they can't get any in the winter due to the ice. They mix the coal with wood chips now to be more efficient with the coal. http://www.xcelenergy.com/Company/Pages/Home.aspx

should read
"The bay area gets all its power from Xcel Energy in Ashland."
because you wouldn't say
"The bay area gets all it is power from Xcel Energy in Ashland."
Oh My! Do we have an "anal English major" in the viewing audience? Like it matters! We just are happy that the pics are shared and out there for all of us Southerners to see and enjoy!
