Pleasant memories ! A time taken for granted. A comparison of then & nowadays. Did you notice all the businesses ? The excitement! Love Kingsport

You could easily tell men from women and 99% of people were a healthy weight.

If you like a sausage fest of miserable oil workers from out of town & the danger/pollutes of chemical plants. With criminalized weed. Then this is the town for you!

[@beaandjuno]

More women in kpt than men. In 60 yrs, never known a oil worker in town. Weed is illegal in the whole state, just not Kpt. Vote out the GOP if you want it legalized.

[@jimhicks4188]

Oil worker?? Are you confusing Tn Eastman co for an oil field? Which by the way I am very proud of. The Eastman as it's called around here furnished me, my family and a whole lot of other families with a good living.
