Boom Times in North Dakota
The state's unemployment rate hovers around 3 percent, and "Help Wanted" signs litter the landscape of cities such as Williston in the same way "For Sale" signs populate the streets of Las Vegas.
"It's
a zoo," said Terry Ayers, who drove into town from Spokane, Wash.,
slept in his truck, and found a job within hours of arrival, tripling
his salary. "It's crazy what's going on out here."
Why We Like 40 degree winters in Dakota? It keeps the riffraff out.

Jim Cartney
Happy Birthday
The Cartney Family celebrated the birthday of Jim Cartney. Happy Birthday from all of your Liffengren relatives.
From Louise and Clif Hullinger
Did our birthday greetings get sent correctly? Anyhow belated happy birthday if they didn't. I have either lost my mind, my brains, my finger dexterity and/or memory because I have such a time every time I sit down at the computer. I think maybe it is too full of news. Any way sure hope Jim's birthday was great. Our 65th anniversary still has us shaking our heads over how they could do it. The pianist must have played every song which was popular between 1846 when we were married until now, because everyone felt as though they were reminiscing those years--
A guy went around taking pictures so I know who was there. You can't remember, and I was talking, naturally, so I wasn't in any of the pictures. He must have gone around taking a picture of everyone, even some twin babies which we never saw.
How has the weather been? Ours is still acting up, raining all morning! on some days. Nothing like the SD dustbowl. I remember when Opal was about a year old or so and she said, "Water is hitting my face." I think she didn't know about rain because it never rained.
I hope all is well with you. We don't seem to get round robins any more. Craig seems to think we can round robin by writing e mail. I think he has set up something we can add too. I'll contact him, in case no one knows about it. I don't think Gen has e mail any more.
It's late, so happy everything. Love and affection from Louise and Clif.
