I wanted to go up and check out the Mae Moh golf course. Interestingly this area has the huge coal power plant and monster mining operation.

Man I wanna drive one of these bad boys. I have driven big rigs before but never anything this size. In my mind this is the perfect commuter vehicle...
The mine runs 24/7. There were at least 50 or more of those big dump trucks blazing around the valley moving dirt or dumping coal on the conveyors to the power plant. I also watched several dynamite ops blowing up the dirt and coal. I'd love a tour down in the valley.
This picture was inside the information center
They had a pretty well laid out museum depicting operations in both English and Thai. Free of charge
Oh yeah...the original mission was to check out the golf course. Well it it is top notch and superbly maintained and was empty. They also have a nice driving range. I will head up next week sometime and smack a bucket of balls.
