It looks like an interesting area to explore.

Warpt, I looked at your page. You have some incredible photography there and it looks like you've got some really good friends.

Born and raised here. I've thought about leaving, but I do like it out here. Has a good job, great friends and most of the family here. Has a brother in Montana and a sister in Anchorage, the rest are here.

Has it changed a lot over the years?

Yes, a lot has changed. It has become a melting pot. Lots of Koreans living here and driving most of the cabs here. You have men mail ordering their wives out of Asia. It seems you see new faces everyday. It is strange when you fly out of here or coming home, you don't know half the people that are flying in or out anymore. The city is putting in new sewage lines in most parts of town. Now, all houses have a water tank in the house with a outside septic tank that gets drained weekly/biweekly. The roads have gotten a lot better, too.

Cobolt, after my trip I might be taking a road trip to Minnesota for free. I'm trying to talk them into a Rush Concert in Boise on June 3rd, looks like that might happen. After that we'd go over to Yellowstone and Devil's Tower in Wyoming. This looks to be a great summer!

You get to get so much time off from work?

Might be worth moving to Bethel

Rush still has concerts? Rush 2112? Man them were the days. Have you been to Devils Tower before Warpt? I was there in 78. It's awesome.
