Cerrillos Coal Company began mining in Madrid around 1835. It was Coal Gulch before it was Madrid. They built the entire town, including a 6.5 mile standard gauge railroad spur connecting the community to the main line of the Santa Fe Railroad by 1892. The town produced 250,000 tons of coal a year at its peak, with a population larger than Albuquerque.

My next teen contemporary from @pagestreetya ! May 16, 2023 ~ A year ago, Gage survived a car accident that killed his best friend, Hunter. Without the person who always brought out the best in him, Gage doesn’t know who he is. He likes working as a fry cook and loves his small-town friends and family, but they weren’t in the wreck and he can’t tell them how much he’s still
hurting. He just wants to forget all his pain and move on.

So when his stepdad shows him a dream job opening in one of his idol’s restaurants, Gage knows this is his chance to convince everyone and himself that he’s fine. To try to push past his grief once and for all, Gage applies for the job, asks out a crush, and volunteers to host a memorial for Hunter.

But the more Gage tries to ignore his grief, the more volatile it becomes.

When his temper finally turns on the people he loves, Gage must decide what real strength is―holding in his grief until it destroys him, or asking for help and revealing his broken heart for all to see. #yabooks #grief #healing #death #writersofinstagram #books #contemporaryya #smalltownusa #smalltownlife #sadbooks #softboy ~ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cma5WYLOMmI/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
