hard working... the left has no freakin idea. my hubby welded on pipelines in the perma frost that destroyed his knees. imagine welding 24inch pipe below ground in frozen tundra - the ground melts and freezes around you. i was his welder’s helper, it was tough. but i was a tough minn farm girl and could handle it, we were the last ones the job, the texans and okies walked off.. lol.. i was only 18 ....but i hung in there.
God bless you and prayers for relief for your hubby’s painful knees. Alaska is truly our last frontier. I will never forget when my best friend in grade school left with her Mom, her granny and their truck/camper with “Alaska or Bust” painted on the back. What an adventure for them! (1960’s)
