I came up 42 years ago. I figure I was up here the great years when the oil money was good for both the people and the state. We were kids in our 20s making 3-4 times our age. We’d fly Seattle to watch games, ski weekends, back country canoeing and fishing,river rafting.......Ahh to be young again.
